Cancer research is a scientific field focused on understanding cancer biology, its causes, mechanisms, and progression to develop effective prevention, diagnosis, and treatment strategies. This interdisciplinary area encompasses various approaches, including molecular biology, genetics, immunology, and clinical studies. The objective is to uncover the fundamental aspects of cancer, such as how cancer cells grow and spread, the role of genetic mutations, and interactions with the body’s immune system.
Research efforts include laboratory studies, clinical trials, drug development, and epidemiological studies. The findings from cancer research aim to provide insights that can lead to innovations in therapeutic interventions, improve quality of life for patients, and ultimately reduce cancer incidence and mortality rates. By advancing knowledge about cancer, researchers strive to conquer one of the most challenging health issues globally.
