Most common risk factors were hypertension, obesity, smoking, and hearing loss. Of particular concern was persistent and increasingly high levels of inadequately addressed CVS risk factors across waves.

🔬 Today is World Cancer Research Day.

But not everyone is equally represented in cancer research.

People with intellectual disabilities die from cancer at higher rates than the general population, yet remain too often invisible in screening, diagnosis, and treatment pathways.

🎥 In this video, Dr. Martin mcMahon @mcmahonm44, Cancer Care Lead, shares why inclusion in cancer research and care is so important:

At TCAID, we are working to change that:
📊 Linking national & longitudinal data to map cancer in people with intellectual disability
⚖️ Exploring inequalities in care
🛡️ Reviewing cancer prevention and screening policies
🗣️ Listening directly to people with intellectual disabilities and their families

Cancer care should be inclusive.

Everyone deserves a fair chance at prevention, treatment, and survival.
