We’re all crucial to reducing cancer risk and improving patient outcomes
Editorial

One in two people born after 1960 will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime (Cancer Research UK, 2018a). But, four in 10 cancers can be prevented (Cancer Research UK, 2018b), and, for some of the most common cancers survival at one year is more than double when diagnosed at its earliest stage compared to the latest stage (Office for National Statistics [ONS], 2016).
