EER Registries, Enhancing the Mission to Support Cancer Research
This presentation will cover current status of the SEER program and review opportunities for use of the data in support of cancer research as it currently exists. It will identify and discuss challenges in more comprehensive data collection and how these are being addressed through new initiatives that will enhance the capacity of the registries to support research in a contemporary research setting.
