World Cancer Day 2014  (4 February 2014) will build on the success of last year's campaign, by again focusing on   Target 5 of the World Cancer Declaration: Reduce stigma and dispel myths about cancer , under the tagline   “Debunk the myths” . World Cancer Day is a chance to raise our collective voices in the name of improving general knowledge around cancer and dismissing misconceptions about the disease. From a global level, we are focusing our messaging on the four myths above. In addition to being in-line with our global advocacy goals, these overarching myths leave a lot of flexibility for members, partners and supporters to adapt and expand on for their own needs. http://www.worldcancerday.org/

The World Cancer Declaration calls upon government leaders and health policy-makers to significantly reduce the global cancer burden, promote greater equity, and integrate cancer control into the world health and  development agenda. Building on the Global NCD Action Plan (2013-2020) agreed by Member States at the World Health Assembly in May 2013, the global cancer community has identified a set of immediate actions for all stakeholders, in particular governments, to advance progress towards the 9 World Cancer Declaration targets and the overarching goal. OVERARCHING GOAL AND 9 TARGETS OF THE WORLD CANCER DECLARATION Overarching Goal: There will be major reductions in premature deaths from cancer, and improvements in quality of life and cancer survival rates.

Dr. Janet D. Rowley, a physician who four decades ago became the first person to show a conclusive link between certain genetic abnormalities and certain cancers, died on Tuesday at her home in Chicago. She was 88. The death, from complications of  ovarian cancer , was announced by the University of Chicago , where Dr. Rowley was the Blum-Riese distinguished service professor of medicine, molecular   genetics   and cell biology, and human genetics. Dr. Rowley, described by The New York Times in 2011 as   “the matriarch of modern cancer genetics,”   made her pathbreaking discovery in 1972, when she found that a particular type of leukemia could result when two chromosomes abnormally exchanged genetic material. Her findings helped establish   cancer   as a genetic disease. They also made possible the development of targeted drug therapies for specific cancers. For her work, Dr. Rowley received the Lasker Award, given for distinguished contributions to medical science; the N
