## Grace Hanvey, Ph.D. Clinical Health Psychology Fellow Research Mentor: Shawna L. Ehlers, Ph.D., A.B.P.P., L.P. Dr. Hanvey’s research interests focus on cancer health inequities that disproportionately impact marginalized populations across social, economic, and medical domains. Their work to date has primarily investigated patterns of underrepresentation in both tumor-directed and supportive care cancer clinical trials, particularly among racial, ethnic, sexual, and gender minorities; older adults; and patients with fewer socioeconomic resources, of rural origin, or with comorbid disabilities. Dr. Hanvey’s research prioritizes better understanding of barriers to equitable representation in cancer research among these underserved populations through a socioecological perspective that adequately centers the upstream effects of interlocking forms of systemic marginalization, and in turn, social determinants of health. Through this perspective, Dr. Hanvey seeks to collaboratively develop solutions to dismantling these patterns of underrepresentation, and thus, cancer health inequities among the underserved across quality of life, treatment, and survival outcomes. Overall, Dr. Hanvey’s research explores relationships among minoritized social identities, economic strain, and medical complexity in predicting various cancer outcomes, mechanisms that underpin these relationships, and future directions for achieving more equitable cancer care.
