Dr. Bruce Trock told us about prostate cancer research and the challenges of gathering large consistent data sets. A lot of data is stored in the library but very little is consistent, limiting successful research. Yet, 1 in about 6 men is affected by prostate cancer. About 27,000 men die of prostate cancer each year. Although age, race and genetics are obvious risk factors, they also suspect hormones, diet and inflammation. US and European citizens have much higher rates than Asians. Asians immigrating to the US end up in the same statistics, leading them to believe that life style has a huge impact on cancer incidence.
