ABC Study - Cancer Concil Victoria

The ABC Study is working with people across Australia to help understand the causes of cancer and other diseases. This research is only possible because of the contribution of those who take part in the study.

We sincerely thank you for taking part.

Team says thanks

Thank you!

Thank you for taking part in the ABC Study. We now have over 7,000 registered! Many have completed the study questionnaires, providing researchers with information about their health, lifestyle and the history of cancer in their family. They also have provided a sample of their saliva for genetic analyses.
