Melbourne University’s Professor Mark Jenkins discusses his team’s latest research which highlights excess deaths due to the rise in early-onset bowel cancer between 1990 and 2020, as well as the disparity of bowel cancer research funding in Australia.
Mark also discusses the burden early-onset bowel cancer on those who are in the rush-hour of their lives – building careers, developing relationships and raising families.
“The increase in early-onset bowel cancer is a major problem. If we knew the WHY then we could perhaps prevent it in the first place. Finding the WHY would be a huge leap.”
