Summary
Cancelled Cancer -research will define why some Lynch Syndrome variant carriers escape from the cancer, which often occurs before midlife and live cancer-free to old age. We will investigate circulating microRNAs as cancer onset markers and life-habits as factors influencing these biomarkers and thus cancer risk.
