Cancer Epidemiology
Cancer epidemiology is the study of how and why cancer occurs in different populations. It looks at the patterns, causes and control of cancer in different people. It supports public health and clinical practice by identifying possible risk factors for cancer and helping to develop prevention strategies. Cancer epidemiology also helps to evaluate the effectiveness of cancer screening, early detection and treatment options, and provides information on prognosis, long-term outcomes and quality of life for people affected by cancer. By better understanding the causes, prevention, and treatment of cancer, cancer epidemiology has the potential to save lives and reduce suffering from cancer.
