Ref.: 23-004_SS_MC

 

About the research group

The Nutrition and Cancer research group comprises a multidisciplinary team of epidemiologists, nutritionists, biologists, and statisticians. It focuses primarily on aetiological research into the relationship between nutrition and cancer. This includes diet and dietary patterns, body composition and physical activity as possible determinants of cancer, as well as genetic susceptibility in human carcinogenesis. The group also investigates the role of nutritional factors in the prognosis of cancer patients and survivors. To achieve this, we combine traditional epidemiological approaches with more innovative tools including exposure and susceptibility biomarkers.

Historically, most research by UNAC has been carried out under the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC), a multicentric cohort study including about half million participants with a primary objective to investigate the relationship between nutrition, lifestyle, genetic and environmental factors and the incidence of cancer and other chronic diseases.
