El 24 de noviembre de 2020, USA Today incluyó el encarte de salud digestiva de Mediaplanet, con un artículo escrito por Andrea (Andi) Dwyer, asesora del equipo de educación e investigación de pacientes de Fight CRC. A través del USA Today, la distribución selectiva y los amplios medios sociales y en línea, esta publicación, tanto impresa como en línea, llegó a unos 20 millones de lectores.

Titled Colorectal Cancer Doesn’t Discriminate by Age, the article included Fight CRC’s recommendations from our early-age onset research blueprint. “In June 2020, more than 400 researchers, scientists, and patient or research advocates worldwide joined together virtually to develop pathways based on a 2019 published research blueprint designed to better study causation of early-age onset colorectal cancer (EAO CRC). The types of questions and risk factors to be studied include diet in childhood; obesity at certain times in life; microbiome within the colon; antibiotic use in childhood; and gene and environment interactions.”

Fight CRC takes our role in the path to a cure seriously. We hope this feature will bring light to the critical-nature of EAO CRC and forge research in the right direction, saving lives along the way.
