Early cancer detection
Wired: Why early detection is the best way to beat cancer
It’s been on my to-do since January to follow the Canary Foundation (see article), which focuses on early cancer detection. I’ve seen it noted fairly often that early detection offers the absolute best chances of beating it, but there is still no cheap, easy and safe access to detection technology for everyone.
I really like what the Canary Foundation is doing, and I’m optimistic that coupled with genetic testing from 23andMe and Navigenics (which are still, arguably, too expensive) we’ll be better focused on early detection, and soon.
