Most of us know that cancer is a persistent threat, and I'm sure many of us would want to know all that we can about it. Of course, you can try to read up on cancer in books and on the net, but it can be quite confusing -especially with all the jargon being thrown around.Fortunately, institutes like the National Cancer Centre runs continuous public information programmes. Conducted by their in-house doctors, these programmes are very comprehensive, and furthermore, these doctors take their time to express their knowledge in ways that their audience can understand.
That's why NCCS' programmes are always in-demand, and are packed to the brim with eager listeners! There's one coming up, focusing on Liver, Stomach and Pancreas Cancers. I urge you to register for it before its too late!
Here are the details:
