How can one get involved in Cancer Prevention and Public Health?
Careers in cancer prevention and public health focus on reducing cancer incidence through education and policy:
- Epidemiologists: Study the patterns and causes of cancer in populations. This role often requires a master's degree in public health (MPH). - Public Health Educators: Develop and implement programs to educate the public about cancer prevention. - Policy Makers: Work to create policies that reduce cancer risks, such as regulations on tobacco use or funding for cancer screening programs.
