Brazilian biobank may help personalize cancer prevention in the public health system
A bank of biological samples from thousands of Brazilians could help the Unified Health System (SUS), which is public and free, identify people at higher risk of developing certain types of cancer. In the future, the SUS could offer these individuals m…
