Cancer is a complex group of diseases characterized by the uncontrolled growth and spread of abnormal cells that can invade surrounding tissues and metastasize to other parts of the body. It arises from genetic mutations and cellular damage influenced by factors such as environment, lifestyle, infection, and heredity. Research in cancer biology focuses on understanding tumor development, immune evasion, and molecular signaling pathways to develop targeted therapies, immunotherapies, and precision medicine. Advances in genomics, early detection, and treatment strategies continue to transform cancer care, improving survival rates and deepening our understanding of how cells malfunction to drive one of humanity’s most challenging diseases.
