Transforming Cancer Care

Professor Sir Leszek Borysiewicz Cancer Research UK, Honorary President of the Wolfson Science Society and Honorary Fellow, Wolfson College

Date 20/03/2019 at 19.30 - 20/03/2019 at 20.30 Where Lee Hall, Wolfson College

This talk about the future of cancer care is preceded by a reception at 19.00 in the Lee Hall foyer.

New approaches to prevention, diagnosis and treatment of cancer are growing rapidly and, while incidents of cancer will grow dramatically, it is likely that 3 in 4 people will live 10 years or more with the disease. Professor Sir Leszek Borysiewicz discusses how a transformation in our approach to diagnosis, treatment and care is necessary to deliver the benefits of science to most, if not all, cancer sufferers.

This event is part of WOLFSON EXPLORES | Transformation | and the Cambridge Science Festival.
