David Lubarsky: Cancer diagnosis is tremendously personal, clearly – and your treatment should be too.
David Lubarsky, CEO of UC Davis Health and Vice Chancellor for Human Health Sciences, shared on LinkedIn:
“I spoke at a recent UC Cancer Consortium meeting about how our five centers in the UC system – including our own UC Davis Comprehensive Cancer Center – are leveraging their institutional strengths to deliver world-class cancer care. With advances in collecting and analyzing large data and the new ability to look deeply inside the disease’s biology, this era of health care offers patients unprecedented benefits when such collaboration is dynamic and patient-oriented.
In cancer care, advances will now come only through coordinated efforts among the most skilled people and institutions, using the most advanced technology and digital health tools.
As structured, the UC Cancer Consortium is uniquely placed to take on California’s most difficult issues related to battling this insidious disease.
For example, a cancer diagnosis is tremendously personal, clearly – and your treatment should be too. Today, cancer treatments are increasingly based on your genes and how they interact with specific cancer types.
These personalized treatments – known as precision medicine – along with other innovative treatments, make up the backbone of the consortium that brings together our five National Cancer Institute-designated Comprehensive Cancer Centers.”
