Reducing Colorectal Cancer Burden in Young Adults: Precision Prevention and Early Detection

包括澳大利亚在内的全球范围内，50岁以前的年轻人患肠癌的比例正在上升。由于不可能对每个人都进行筛查，因此确定谁可能患上这种疾病、优化筛查是至关重要的。利用世界上最大的青年肠癌资源，我将进行研究，以产生高质量的证据，以告知如何最好地预防青年肠癌，并转化为政策和实践，以减轻青年结直肠癌的负担。

Bowel cancer rate in young adults before age 50 is increasing worldwide including Australia. Since it is impossible to screen everyone, it is critical to identify who is likely to develop the disease, to optimise screening. Using the world's largest resource for young-onset bowel cancer, I will conduct studies to generate high-quality evidence to inform how to best prevent bowel cancer in young adults and translate into the policy and practice, to reduce colorectal cancer burden in young adults.
