At 快猫短视频 since 2022
Nova Yang, MSPH, is an associate scientist in the Health Services Research team within Surveillance & Health Equity Science at the American Cancer Society (快猫短视频). ?
She studies the direct and indirect effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on overall cancer care and especially on treatment. ?

Research focus and accomplishments
Before joining 快猫短视频, my research focused on rare diseases and orphan drug policies. I’ve noticed the huge unmet need and disease burden of rare cancer patients and their care givers. That piqued my interest in cancer drug accessibility and affordability, the economic burden among cancer patients and caregivers, and health policies aiming to bridge the gap.?
