Cancer- a model to study
• In Australia cancer is now
the commonest cause of
death
• UICC estimates suggest that
by 2050 this will be true
worldwide
WHAT ARE THE SOLUTIONS
• With some effort, we can
prevent over 70% of cancer
(social responsibility the
key)
• We can now cure over 50% of
cancer (personalised medicine
is a critical next step)
