You can still listen to WVON 1690 AM’s “Dr. in the House with Dr. Terry Mason,” when his guests were Cancer Center member and practicing medical oncologist at UI Health, Ryan Nguyen, DO, and UI Health Mile Square Health Center CEO Karriem Watson, DHSc, MS, MPH, moderating.

The first Sunday of the month is the Cancer Center and Mile Square segment on WVON, where guests discuss cancer research and care, as well as overall general health care and services provided at UI Health, which includes Mile Square and the Cancer Center. UI Health is UIC's academic health system.

During the October 5 segment, the group discussed breast cancer research and the Illinois Cancer Health Equity Research (I-CHER) Center.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
