Comparing NIH Funding for Cancer Survivorship: A Spotlight on Breast and Gynecologic Cancer

Listen to this summary

The authors aimed to evaluate the distribution of National Institutes of Health (NIH) funding for survivorship research in breast and gynecologic cancers from 2017 to 2021. Their findings revealed a significant disparity, with breast cancer research receiving $188.35 million for 4.1 million survivors, compared to only $15.41 million for 796,000 gynecologic cancer survivors, highlighting a critical need for more equitable funding and research efforts to support gynecologic cancer survivorship.
