Cancer control is a field of research that focuses on reducing the incidence, prevalence, and mortality of cancer through prevention, early detection, and treatment strategies. It encompasses a wide range of disciplines, including epidemiology, public health, health promotion, and clinical oncology. Research in cancer control aims to identify risk factors for cancer, develop effective screening and early detection methods, and improve access to quality treatment and care for cancer patients. The ultimate goal of cancer control research is to decrease the burden of cancer on individuals, families, and society as a whole.
