Join a cancer scientist and research advocate as they discuss common charts, graphs, and terms used to describe clinical trial results and data at a level understandable by the general public. This webinar will help equip patients/survivors, caregivers, and research advocates with the skills to understand these data plots when they are shared with a journal article or quickly during a conference presentation. This presentation is part of the IASLC STARS (Supportive Training for Advocates on Research and Science) program for Patient Research Advocates and anyone whose life is impacted by lung cancer.
