  • Share the Strengths and Accomplishments of the program
  • Highlight areas of potential collaboration opportunities among PACHE investigators

PACHE Program Abstract Guidelines

Each PACHE Program Abstract must be submitted online using minimal text formatting (i.e., tables, etc.). Submissions should highlight the innovation, methodology, scientific rigor and outcomes that impact cancer or cancer health disparities.

Submitted abstracts should not exceed 1000 words, max 2 pages, 1.5 spacing. Feel free to include pictures, graphs, and/or tables within the 2 page limit.
