Taking the Bite out of Head and Neck Cancer

Overview

Welcome to the Southeast Center for Research to Reduce Disparities in Oral Health, a multi-disciplinary center at the University of Florida College of Dentistry built on strong community partnerships. The center is a synergistic force aimed at a measurable reduction of disparities in oral health among the underserved, through intervention projects that are based on the best science available and rely on participation of local residents in all phases, from designing research to collecting data to publicizing results and influencing public policy. Our goal is to eliminate disparities in head and neck cancer prevention, detection and survival.
