Epigenetics & Cancer – the impact of social determinants of health We will discuss how interactions between genes and environment impact both the risk of developing cancer and the intersection with social determinants of health. Stress is a major risk factor and this can impact different populations disproportionately, increasing their risk of cancer & disease. We will explain how personalising nutrition and lifestyle advice means understanding your own bias and providing culturally competent advice.
