At #AACR26, Andrew Chan, MD (@MassGeneralNews) breaks down emerging risk factors and how research is moving toward prevention.

Key takeaways:
•Early on-set colorectal cancer is a model for understanding and preventing early-onset cancers.
•Early on-set cancer requires a life course framework.
•Mechanistic models can advance correlation to causality.
•Causality can be advanced to prevention through proof-of-principle human trials.
