The Japan Lung Cancer Society began in 1960 and has grown to almost 7,000 members.
Lung cancer is a growing global epidemic.
No other cancer is as deadly and widespread. By 2030 that figure will climb to 10 million people. Much work needs to be done to raise public awareness about the issues surrounding lung cancer, and to alleviate the severe stigma associated with this disease, worldwide. We are very pleased to participate in this important conference and begin to build a global advocacy network. The statistics of lung cancer are staggering.
