CRISP Alliance: Enhancing Polygenic Risk Scores with Proteomics for Colorectal Cancer Surveillance and Prediction
Description: Our goal is develop new genetic tests that can help reduce the number of people getting and dying from colorectal cancer. Our hope is that these new tests will be able to be used by doctors to decide how to treat and monitor their colorectal cancer patients, and increase participation in colorectal cancer screening for older Australians, and can identify which younger Australians (who are currently too young for screening) are at high risk and could be offered screening.
