About 100 researchers from around the world are gathering at the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) study. Designed to investigate the relationships of diet, lifestyle, and environmental factors with the incidence of cancer and other chronic diseases, EPIC is one of the largest cohort studies in the world, with more than half a million participants recruited across 10 European countries. To mark the anniversary, IARC is holding a scientific workshop with presentations highlighting results and ongoing projects of EPIC. Topics being discussed include diet, obesity and cancer, biomarkers for early detection, socioeconomic factors and mortality, and air pollution.
