Cancer Epidemiology and Biomarkers
Understanding the patterns and causes of cancer is key to prevention and treatment. This session will focus on the role of biomarkers and epidemiological studies in cancer control, including:
- Biomarker Discovery and Application: Identifying molecular signatures for early detection and personalized treatment.
- Epidemiological Trends: Insights into global cancer incidence and survival rates, and how these influence public health policies.
- Infectious Agents and Cancer: The link between viral infections (such as HPV and Hepatitis B) and cancer, and strategies for reducing related cancer burdens.
