DESCRIPTION:Healthcare delivery is facing an important transition with a f
 ocus increasingly on chronic disease. Likewise\, the epidemiology of cance
 r incidence and prevalence globally indicates that while the incidence of 
 cancer is rising\, the ability to extend life is adding considerably to th
 e burden of care. Continued scientific advances in our understanding of ca
 ncer and opening up new therapeutic avenues is adding additional pressure 
 and cost pressure on care for cancer patients. As many of the scientific a
 dvances\, particularly the Omics Revolution have a direct bearing on cance
 r\, it places this condition at the forefront of defining the way in which
  healthcare will need to be delivered in the next 20 years.\n\n"Add to cal
