Society study looking at the role of avoidable cancer risk factors

A new study, funded by the Canadian Cancer Society, will for the first time determine the most comprehensive estimates of how many cancer cases could be avoided if Canadians improve their lifestyles and reduce their exposure to environmental carcinogens. When complete, this new study will provide the most comprehensive and accurate breakdown of cancer risk factors across the country. This information can then be used to promote the creation of the most effective and targeted programs and policies to reduce our risk of developing cancer. Read more here.
