Cancer is a complicated set of diseases that range widely in terms of anatomic site, histopathological characteristics, and virulence. Across this spectacular heterogeneity, cancer is primarily a disease of older people and the leading cause of death for men and women between 40 and 79 years of age [1]. There are multiple areas for which the biology of aging and cancer intersects where cooperative research could provide insight into potential mechanisms for the prevention and treatment of disease [2]. We argue that the most effective strategy for better understanding of processes related to cancer and aging is for researchers from both disciplines to approach their work collaboratively and to begin by focusing on improving communications about cancer and aging for diverse older adults and their families.
