What causes cancer? The American Cancer Society predicts that one in two men and one in three women in the United States will be diagnosed with some form of the disease—yet hereditary or genetic predisposition accounts for less than ten percent of those cases. What triggers the other nine-tenths? Are efforts to reduce the occurrence of cancer working?
Bernard Kwabi-Addo is assistant professor of cancer research and a principal investigator at Howard University, Washington, DC.
Tia Laura Lindstrom is a freelance writer. She coauthored Praeger's An Introduction to the Work of a Medical Examiner: From Death Scene to Autopsy Suite.
