Katie Couric Instagram – I’ve cared deeply about colorectal cancer awareness and early detection ever since I lost my husband Jay to the disease in 1998. Sadly, since Jay’s passing at 42, the number of cases among young people has only risen. Why? It’s a mystery that continues to confound scientists.
But oncologists like Dr. Andrea Cercek are beginning to understand what could be behind the trend. I interviewed Dr. Cercek, the founder and co-director of @memorialsloanekettering’s Center for Young Onset Colorectal and Gastrointestinal Cancer, about some of the leading theories and the cutting-edge treatments on the horizon. Watch our conversation on my YouTube channel or at the link in my bio.
