<p class="MsoNormal" style="background:white;vertical-align:baseline"><b><span style="color:black">Abstract: </span></b><span style="color:black">According to the National Cancer Institute and the American Cancer Society, advancing age is the most important
risk factor for cancer and for many individual cancer types. The incidence rates for cancer climb steadily as age increases, especially for people over age 65 years. One in two men and one in three women would develop cancer during their lifetime. Scientific
and medical research and big data suggest that almost half of the cancer incidence may be prevented. People can reduce their cancer risk by addressing modifiable behaviors that include stopping smoking, reducing alcohol consumption, minimizing UV exposure,
managing weight, increasing fitness, eating healthy food, reducing stress, and receiving sufficient medical care. Some cancers are associated with viral infections, such as HPV (human papillomavirus) and hepatitis B. Vaccinations can reduce these risks. According
to the US Environment Protection Agency estimates, Radon is the number one cause of lung cancer among non-smokers and the second leading cause of lung cancer after cigarette smoking. Genetics may also play a role, so while lifestyle choices are crucial, germline
and somatic mutations are part of a broader picture of health. Living a lifestyle that supports cancer prevention and successful longevity involves a combination of healthy habits, regular medical care, clean environment, and self and community care and support.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

Research, and an Endowed Chair Professor of Cancer Research at the Florida State University. She received her Ph.D. degree from Georgetown University Medical School in Washington D.C. in 1990. Dr. Sang obtained her tenure-track Assistant Professor of Chemistry
& Biochemistry position at FSU in 1997 and was promoted to tenured Associate Professor in 2003, and she received promotion to full Professor of Chemistry & Biochemistry at FSU in 2008. She received an individual National Research Service Award, an individual
Postdoctoral Fellowship, and a FIRST Award from the National Institutes of Health. She has also won other national awards for her research, including a New Investigator Award from the Congressionally Directed Medical Research Program, Department of Defense
(DOD); an Exploration-Hypothesis Development Award from the DOD Prostate Cancer Research Program; an breast cancer research award from the Susan G. Komen for the Cure; and a Distinguished Lecturer Award from the Center for Prostate Cancer Research, Walter
Reed Army Medical Center, Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences, DOD. Dr. Sang together with her students, postdocs, and collaborators published 142 peer-reviewed research papers in high impact journals and these papers were cited 10764+ times,
with an h-index of 54 and i10-index of 120 according to Google Scholar. Dr. Sang’s laboratory deciphers the biochemical mechanisms of human breast, prostate, and brain cancer initiation, progression, metabolism, angiogenesis, and invasion for cancer biomarker
and drug discovery. Human childhood brain malignant rhabdoid tumor is modeled using induced pluripotent stem cell-derived brain organoids. The gene editing and stem cell technologies are utilized to generate this novel cancer model for drug evaluation for
the effective treatment of pediatric brain cancer. Environmental toxins are also evaluated using human cell lines and brain organoids. Professor Sang is an Elected Fellow and a member of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, a member of
the American Association for Cancer Research, and the American Chemical Society.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
