Overview
Cancer genetics and prevention examines how genetic and environmental factors contribute to the development of cancer. Through improved understanding of the molecular, genetic and environmental risk factors, researchers can explore new strategies for preventing and treating the disease. Individuals who are at a high risk of cancer due to known genetic mutations can benefit from targeted early detection, lifestyle changes and preventive interventions, while those at average risk may benefit from tailored cancer screenings, lifestyle modifications and other preventive measures. Cancer genetics and prevention has the potential to reduce cancer incidence and bring about lasting changes in how the disease is managed.
