Grace Chow Presents Research at COSM 2025 in New Orleans

Grace Chow, an OTO-COATI Lab clinical research coordinator, recently presented her work at the Combined Otolaryngology Spring Meetings (COSM) 2025 research conference, held in New Orleans, LA from May 14–18, 2025.

COSM is the premier annual conference in Otolaryngology – Head and Neck Surgery, bringing together physicians, researchers, residents, medical students, and allied health professionals from across the country. The conference serves as a leading forum for sharing innovative clinical and scientific research, with the ultimate goal of improving patient care.

Grace presented a poster on her project titled “Language Matters: Contraception Requirement Phrasing Influences Equitable Enrollment in Head and Neck Cancer Clinical Trials.” Her presentation highlighted how subtle differences in language used in clinical trial protocols can impact participant diversity and equitable enrollment. This project was a collaborative effort with Dr. Heather Edwards, Melani Zuckerman, and Dr. Gintas Krisciunas.

Congratulations to Grace on this exciting achievement and contribution to the field!
