Cancer research is a scientific field dedicated to understanding cancer’s biology, its causes, prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis. It encompasses a wide range of studies that explore the genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors contributing to cancer development. Researchers in this field aim to identify new therapeutic targets, improve existing treatments, and ultimately find a cure for various types of cancer. This research can include laboratory experiments, clinical trials, epidemiological studies, and basic biological investigations, involving multidisciplinary approaches that may encompass molecular, cellular, and genomic studies. The goal of cancer research is to enhance knowledge about the disease and to translate discoveries into effective interventions that improve patient outcomes and quality of life.
