“Largely on the role of the hpv virus as an oral cancer cause, and how common infection with it is in the us. Ocf staff members and key opinion/science leaders spoke at numerous public events. We have stepped up our speaking engagements in the rdh community as well. There is a great deal of misinformation about the hpv virus and the relative risk this poses to american's as a whole. We are targeting the rdh community as a prime mechanism to get correct information out via their many patient contacts per year. Ocf volunteer ranks grew significantly in 2013, and we added many new awareness events around the country as a result. In 2013 the foundation conducted a total of 42 events in major cities as a result of these new relationships, many of which come from the ranks of the rdh community. (as this is being written in 2014, we are already on track to have over 48 events this year.) each event had numerous large strategic partners, such as dental schools, fortune 500 corporations, and cancer treatment centers as co-sponsors. With these new partners assisting in the funding of these events, the costs to ocf continues to be significantly reduced over previous years when the foundation funded events on its own. The community outreach through these events is significant with many events reaching 750 plus walkers/runners and even more as non-attending team financial supporters. Realizing the significance of these larger events making news in the communities, which in turn raises public awareness of the disease, the risk factors for getting it, and the early signs and symptoms that a lay person might notice and seek help for, the foundation continued to invest in our web based software that facilitates an individual's effort to build teams and reach a larger community of people via their email, facebook, and twitter friends and followers. We anticipate that the impact of this in 2014 to allow us to make a significant jump in the number of individuals that we can reach with good science based information that they can put to use in their lives. In 2013 our contributions to hpv/oral-oropharyngeal research continued, advancing what we know about this fast growing oral cancer etiology. We also saw published the outcomes from previous years research, in prestigious peer reviewed journals such as the journal of the american medical association and the new england journal of medicine. Ocf sponsored researchers also spoke a several large head and neck cancer conferences to their peers and members of the treatment community, and ocf worked behind the scenes to see them get these speaking opportunities. Continuing in the topic of research, ocf began sponsorship of a new researcher at johns hopkins, dr. Amber d'souza. We chose this doctor for her research direction, which looks more at the sociological implications of hpv driven disease, using oral cancers as the showcase disease. The first paper that will bear ocf's fingerprint looks at hpv+ oral cancer patients and their spouses, and will identify if spouses of hpv cancer patients are at any greater risk than the general population for developing disease as a result of their sexual interactions with their spouses. We expect this work to be published mind 2014. In the annual april oral cancer awareness month national activities, ocf again broke records in the number of screening sites, and free screenings to the american public conducted with our partners. With over 2,400 screening events nationally in april, the foundation's dental and otolaryngology partners conducted over 64,000 free oral cancer screenings in communities across the country. We had strong strategic partners for these events, including bristol-myers squibb, henry schein dental, the country's largest dental products supplier, led diagnostics. We also expanded the cooperation and buy in from professional societies including; the academy of general dentistry, the american academy of oral and maxillofacial surgery, the american den”
