Early Detection Research Network
The Early Detection Research Network (EDRN) is a collaborative program that develops and improves methods for finding cancer early, often before symptoms appear. By integrating research from scientists, doctors, and technology experts, EDRN focuses on discovering reliable biomarkers—biological signs indicating cancer presence. The goal is to create tests that can detect cancer at an early stage when it's more treatable. This research helps improve screening tools, making early diagnosis more accurate, ultimately leading to better patient outcomes and personalized treatment options.
