***********************************
Lifting Every Voice for Health Equity and Research
Established in 2021, the FCRN is the result of a partnership between the Faith-Based Genetic Research Institute, Wayne State University, and Karmanos Cancer Institute. These groups came together because not only are African Americans underrepresented in the research that drives health discoveries and innovations, but in the settings where research agendas are created.
Our network of churches is committed to lifting every voice among us in setting research priorities that are relevant to our communities. FCRN strives to engage people in the research process by applying strategies that are appropriate, effective, and transparent.
