Dr Terence Dwyer - Childhood cancer
Dr Terence Dwyer of the George Institute for Global Health, University of Oxford, United Kingdom, explains how, thanks to IARC’s involvement, scientists around the world are contributing data to the International Childhood Cancer Cohort Consortium (I4C). The goal of the study is to provide the first prospective evidence of potential causes of childhood cancer.
IARC in 140 Characters is a tribute to the people who dedicate their lives to reducing and eliminating the global burden of cancer through research, international projects, and innovative new approaches to cancer control and prevention. It offers a glimpse into how IARC collaborators and partners are tackling cancer-related challenges in different settings around the world, and how IARC is helping to make a real difference in the areas of cancer prevention, cancer screening, and the training of healthcare professionals.
