Researching Cancers
There are more than 200 types of cancer, some of which are already curable. But some cancers are more common in Asians, and sadly, there is less research on cancers in Asians and survival for cancers common in Asians are lower than survival for cancers common in Caucasians. Cancer Research Malaysia is saving lives through impactful research in Asians.
“I was told once that we need optimism, love, and physical exercise. That is true. In addition to that, the treatment that one receives should be based on good evidence. That’s what research is.”
