Enabling personalised risk assessment for colorectal cancer [ 2018 - 2021 ]

Research Grant

Researchers: Dr Aung Win (Principal investigator)

Brief description Bowel cancer screening will be most effective in disease prevention if it is applied proportionately to individual person's risk. Risk-based screening requires a risk calculator to assess personal risk. By utilising existing large, international datasets, I will identify the risk factors specific for different bowel cancer types and incorporate them to upgrade the prediction model that I have developed. This will achieve more accurate risk prediction to enable personalised risk-based screening.
