The aim is to develop a spatio-temporal model to analyze cancer incidence rates across U.S. counties.
Conducted modeling of cancer incidence based on geographic and temporal data
Generated maps illustrating variation in cancer rates across different counties
Analyzed data for trends and disparities over time
Identified geographic areas with higher cancer incidence rates
Delineated temporal trends in cancer rates across several years
Facilitated targeted interventions based on identified disparities
Abstract
The resulting estimates and maps could support surveillance, trend analysis, disparity identification, targeted interventions, and broader research efforts.
