AI Summary

This bill, the Women and Lung Cancer Research and Preventive Services Act of 2021, aims to address the disparate impact of lung cancer on women, particularly those who have never smoked. The bill calls for an interagency review to evaluate the status of research on women and lung cancer, access to lung cancer preventive services, and the development of public awareness campaigns. The review would identify opportunities for collaborative, innovative research to address knowledge gaps, evaluate environmental and genomic factors, and improve risk assessment, diagnosis, and treatment. The bill also encourages the development of a national lung cancer screening strategy and a public education campaign to raise awareness on the impact of lung cancer on women and the importance of early detection.
