M?ori will be the focus of this country's first trial of screening for lung cancer.
It's been made possible by a grant of nearly $2 million from the Health Research Council and the Global Alliance for Chronic Diseases programme.
Lung cancer is our biggest single cause of cancer death, and a major driver of health inequities between M?ori and non-Maori.
Otago University M?ori health researcher Sue Crengle will lead the trial.
