Our evidence-based quiz can assist
There’s an abundance of information regarding cancer risk circulating in media, during discussions, and across social media platforms. To assist in distinguishing truth from falsehoods, researchers at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health have introduced the Cancer FactFinder. This online resource enables individuals to examine prevalent claims about cancer risk to discover if they are validated or discredited by scientific research.
Timothy Rebbeck, Vincent L. Gregory Jr. Professor of Cancer Prevention and the editor-in-chief of FactFinder, collaborated with us to construct the following quiz designed to aid readers in making healthier decisions.
