Here’s what Dr. Whitney Jones, MD, and I cover:
1. How artificial intelligence and cell-free DNA technology can be used to detect cancer early and accurately.

2. The challenges of single cancer screenings and the potential of multicancer screening to supplement them.

3. The increase in cancer due to environmental toxins, disrupted nutrition, and the pandemic, and how this can be addressed using new technology.
