With the coming of this New Year, you just can't help seeing tons of top 10 lists, detailing the best and worst of everything that came and went during the past decade. And, we tend to fall for them like many of you do -- hook, line and sinker -- especially those digested on this broadband party line experts call the Internet.
That said, we enjoyed reading interviews from a number of health experts about the generally positive future of cancer research. Interestingly, some of the responses collected by the American Institute for Cancer Research and the BBC share some common themes we discuss quite often in this space:
* A far greater understanding of the link between obesity and cancer.
* The importance of nutrition.
* Mapping the human genome, thus creating new avenues for more effectively treating cancer with gene therapy.
* Cancer prevention, an integral part of living a healthier lifestyle.
