'In my lifetime we can do something to prevent it (bowel cancer)'

We know bowel cancer is the deadliest cancer for people 25-44 and Australia has the highest rates of early-onset bowel cancer in the world, but we don’t know why.

On this episode Associate Professor Daniel Buchanan discusses the importance of funding bowel cancer research, his Angel Study and why he is excited about bowel cancer research.

“In my lifetime we can do something to prevent it. . . Cancer is a complex disease and there is much we don’t know but the exciting part is we know the mechanisms for the development of bowel cancer and how to intercept it. We just need to work on who gets that interception.”
