Dr Paul Brennan spoke to ecancer at the UICC World Cancer Congress in Kuala Lumpur about using genetics to close the knowledge gap about cancer causes.

He discusses how lifestyle factors are a huge part of the causes of cancer, many of them genetically linked, so and evaluating this from a genetic perspective is very important.
