Braun-Inglis is an oncology researcher whose research identified several challenges APPs face. She has made notable progress in expanding their role in National Cancer Institute (NCI<\/abbr>) clinical trials, aiming to enhance their engagement and representation. Her clinical trial research includes increasing diversity, optimizing cancer care delivery, and focusing on specific areas such as breast cancer.<\/p>\n

“It is such an honor to receive the ACCC<\/abbr> 2024 David King Community Clinical Scientist Award!” said Braun-Inglis, who was also awarded the 2023 for her achievements in expanding the roles of APP<\/abbr>s. “ACCC<\/abbr>‘s dedication to multidisciplinary, team-based care continues to shine by acknowledging the important role advanced practice providers can play in clinical research.” <\/p>\n

The ACCC<\/abbr>‘s endorsement of Braun-Inglis’ proposal for an APP<\/abbr> and clinical trials survey initiated national policy changes to broaden the scope of APP<\/abbr> roles in clinical trials and implement a novel care delivery research concept. This concept integrates APPs across the NCI Community Oncology Research Program. <\/p>\n

Braun-Inglis was honored at the 2024 ACCC<\/abbr> Awards Ceremony on March 1 in Washington, D.C., during the organization\u2019s 50th Annual Meeting and Cancer Center Business Summit. The award is named in honor of the late Dr. David K. King, a former president of ACCC<\/abbr>, for his lifelong dedication to caring for those with cancer and advocacy for access to quality care.<\/p>\n
