In this episode of Causes or Cures, Dr. Eeks chats with Dr. Marko Lukic, a physician and researcher at the Arctic Univeristy of Norway, who recently did a study on modifiable risk factors for colon cancer, an interesting and timely topic considering the concerning rising rates of colon cancer in young people. The study was published in the International Journal of Cancer.

In the podcast, Dr. Lukic will talk us through his research; what data he used; about the specific, modifiable risk factors and their link to colon cancer incidence (or new cases) and how much these risk factors explain the burden of colon cancer and how much of the burden remains unexplained. For the coffee drinkers out there, he will also add some interesting tidbits about his research on coffee and its relationship to cancer.
