“Rather than say using invasive approaches… blood samples like plasma or serum capture the signature of a cancer somewhere in the body… In many cases we can detect those signatures up to 7 years before [a #cancer diagnosis].” – Dr. Philip Awadalla, Director at OICR

OHS participant Matt asks: How does our blood change as we age?
Find out from cancer researcher Dr. @KimSkead how our blood acts as an early messenger of emerging health issues, and why platforms like the OHS are important to the early detection of cancer & chronic disease.

In celebration of #ScienceLiteracyWeek, we present our latest Ask a Cancer Researcher video. Here, Dr. @KimSkead answers the question of how our blood changes as we age and how that factors into predicting, diagnosing and treating cancer. #cancerresearch @scilitweek
