Welcome to the Cancer Prevention and Screening Blog.
We are a group of epidemiologists, behavioural scientists and population researchers studying the causes of, and early events in, the development of cancer. Our aim is to interfere and prevent cancer, or to diagnose it early, while still easy to treat. The blog is supported by the Early Cancer Institute at the University of Cambridge.

Dr Oleg Blyuss is a Reader in Data Science and Statistics at the Centre for Cancer Screening, Prevention and Early Diagnosis. His research is around development of predictive models that use multi-omic data for the early detection of cancer. Current grants aim at the analysis of longitudinal data arising from serum biomarkers and MRI images, which allows for a personalised approach in early detection. Oleg holds a PhD in Applied Mathematics from Oles Honchar Dnipro National University, Ukraine.
