June is National #CancerSurvivor Month, honoring those who are in remission or are currently facing a cancer diagnosis. As of 2022, there are 18.1 million survivors in the US. By 2040, it is estimated that the number of survivors will reach 26 million. Most survivors (69%) have lived at least 5 years since diagnosis, and 18% have surpassed 20 years. Cancer #survivorshipresearch is crucial, especially research focused on long-term health, psychosocial well-being, and addressing health disparities. Many survivors endure challenges like cardiac issues, chronic pain, and financial toxicity. Survivorship research aims to improve quality of life. In honor of #NationalCancerSurvivorMonth, support cancer survivors by advocating for research. The impact of cancer doesn’t end at remission.

Reflecting on recent personal experiences, The devastating effects of cancer have deeply impacted me. Witnessing my half-sister's sudden decline, eventually succumbing to breast cancer, sparked a profound interest in understanding this disease further. The unexpected diagnosis emphasized the critical need for early detection and accessible treatment options. Additionally, encountering the plight of a tenant on my father's property, facing financial strain due to a loved one's medical emergency in another country, underscored the global reach and socio-economic implications of a disease called cancer. These experiences have ignited a strong desire to embark on a meaningful journey to contribute to cancer-related projects. With the right resources and first-hand information like mine, we can make significant strides in research, early detection methods, and accessible treatment options. I am eager to connect with professionals and organizations that share a similar passion for combating cancer and are dedicated to making a tangible difference in the lives of those affected. #CancerResearch #EarlyDetection #AccessibleTreatment #HealthcareInnovation #GlobalHealth

Congress is just around the corner and we're excited for what's to come! We are pleased to announce that we have received acceptance for a crucial paper that will address the role of exercise in people suffering from cancer. But here's an intriguing fact: exercise alone is not enough to change metabolism in cancer patients. Is this bad news? Not at all! It makes perfect sense - did you really think that a tumour, such an "intelligent" entity, would be fooled by a single intervention? This is where clinical psychoneuroimmunology comes in. The key is the combination of interventions working in a circle, understanding and approaching the complexity of chronic diseases from different angles. At the congress, we will explore how clinical psychoneuroimmunology becomes the essential tool to understand and treat chronic diseases. Get ready to discover new perspectives and solutions! Have you already got your ticket? If not, make sure you get it and join us on this journey of knowledge and discovery! https://lnkd.in/dDUPkfHD #PNIeurope #PNI #PNI #kpni #kpni #cpni #leopruimboom #pruimboominstitute #clinicalpsychoneuroimmunology #psychoneuroimmunology #Anniversary #Congress #Celebration #KPNI2024 #KPNICongress2024 #35YearsOfKPNI #HealthAndWellness #FutureOfMedicine #PNICongress #Kpni2024 #Cancer #MedicalResearch

Cancer encompasses a group of diseases characterized by uncontrolled growth and spread of cells. With various types and forms, cancer can be influenced by factors such as age, gender, genetic elements, and environmental factors. However, effective combat against many types of cancer is possible through early diagnosis, healthy lifestyle choices, and medical treatment. World Cancer Day serves as a vital platform to foster awareness globally about the challenges posed by cancer. Health professionals, researchers, caregivers, and community leaders join forces on this day to enhance resources, knowledge, and support for the battle against cancer. It is important to recognize that, with informed choices and proactive healthcare, we can effectively combat various forms of cancer. By uniting against cancer, we work towards a future where the impact of this disease is diminished, and hope prevails. #TurquazHealth #MedicalTourism #HealthTourism #Cancer #WorldCancerDay

4𝑡ℎ 𝐹𝑒𝑏𝑟𝑢𝑎𝑟𝑦 𝐖𝐨𝐫𝐥𝐝 𝐂𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐫 𝐃𝐚𝐲 🩷 𝐖𝐨𝐫𝐥𝐝 𝐂𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐫 𝐃𝐚𝐲 is celebrated on 4 February to raise awareness among the population and bring to light not only the problems related to tumor diseases, but also the right practices to prevent and limit the onset of cancer. The World Health Organization (WHO) confirms that cancer is one of the leading causes of death in the world. Beating cancer is a battle that is fought mainly in research laboratories and hospital departments, but it also involves communication and the dissemination of information. An early diagnosis helps reduce risks and the same goes for all practices related to a correct lifestyle. #BIOVIIIx #worldcancerday #cancer #health #sanità #prevention #OMS
