Global oncology is a rapidly evolving academic discipline as the biology and management of cancer varies dramatically in different parts of the world.  Low-and middle-income countries (LMICs) are greatly affected by the increasing cancer burden and by 2040, it is estimated that LMICs will carry 75% of the global cancer burden. Studying cancer in LMICs provides opportunities to better understand and address the drivers of cancer morbidity and mortality in LMICs to benefit populations worldwide. 

Center for Global Health Director, Dr. Satish Gopal, will present at the African Cancer Institute's Cancer Lecture Series on Tuesday, August 24th. Register for the global oncology webinar.
