DESCRIPTION

Join us for the unveiling of Multiplicities: An Artistic Exploration of Racial Disparities in Cancer Outcomes, a new art exhibit supported by the MIT Koch Institute and the health equity organization Nucarta

Research has shown that Black, Brown and minority communities hold the highest cancer burden of all racial/ethnic groups in the U.S. The exhibit consists of thought-provoking artworks that speak to the current state of cancer inequities and starts the conversation about how to eradicate health disparities in our communities. 

The exhibit’s opening night, timed to celebrate the Cambridge Science Festival’s Health Equity Day, will include talks from the artists and a chance to mingle with the artists and local scientists, engineers, health equity advocates, and health professionals.

ABOUT THE ORGANIZER

At the Koch Institute, we think about cancer differently. Our vibrant community of life scientists and engineers brings the best of MIT to cancer research, working across disciplines to ask big questions and come up with big ideas. Our research model is built on convergence—the coming together of life sciences with engineering and physical sciences—and collaboration.
