By integrating NCSM’s network with Gene Solutions’ MCED technology, the initiative aims to raise awareness about the critical role of early cancer detection and extend testing accessibility to a wider demographic.
The collaboration will concentrate on several pivotal areas, including awareness campaigns to inform the public about MCED testing benefits and availability, and community outreach programmes to disseminate information and resources.
Other key focus areas of the partnership are strategies to make MCED tests more accessible, and joint research projects to evaluate the effectiveness of the testing in Malaysia.
