Kanseri Nasıl Önleyebiliriz? | Alan Tomusiak | TEDxBoston Salon

Bu konuşma, kanseri kalp krizlerini önler gibi önleme olasılığını ele alıyor. Konuşmacı Alan Tomusiak, araştırmaların hastalığı başlamadan durdurmaktan çok daha iyi tedaviler geliştirmeye odaklandığını savunuyor. Fillerin ve mavi balinaların örneği ile yüksek riskli gruplarda yapılan aspirin ve nikotinamid denemeleri konu ediliyor. TED'in notuna göre konuşma tıbbi tavsiyenin yerini tutmaz.

• Kanser riskini düşürme ve kardiyovasküler önleme karşılaştırması
• Fil ve grönland balinası gibi hayvanlardan örnekler
• Yüksek riskli gruplarda aspirin ve nikotinamid denemeleri

NOTE FROM TED: Please do not look to this talk as a substitute for medical advice and consult a medical professional before modifying medication or supplements. What if we could prevent cancer the way we prevent heart attacks? Medicines that lower blood pressure and LDL cholesterol have saved hundreds of thousands of lives. Yet cancer research still focuses far more on developing better treatments than on preventing the disease altogether. The natural world, ranging from elephants to bowhead whales, shows that lowering cancer risk is possible. Clinical trials of aspirin and nicotinamide, too, have shown promising results in high-risk populations. We may be on the verge of a prevention revolution in cancer - but getting there will take great effort and courage. Alan Tomusiak, PhD, became interested in the field of longevity after realizing the immense potential of treating disease as early as possible. He completed his undergraduate degree at Stanford University and earned a PhD in the Biology of Aging at the University of Southern California. He is now the CEO at a company focusing on cancer prevention, Permanence Bio. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
