 I have had a lifelong desire to improve human health, and strongly believe that every life on earth is precious. Recently, I lost my father, Xing-Min Xie, MD, to lung cancer, despite the fact that he was a non-smoker, rarely consumed alcohol, and led a healthy lifestyle. The last few months have been extremely difficult for me as I have sought answers to my father's unexpected death. As a result, my grief and loss drive my new passion. Specifically, I have resolved to apply my twenty-plus years of experience and expertise in the field of biomedical research to the challenge of cancer prevention.Several well-respected national organizations provide a wealth of information about cancer. There are also charities that focus their energies on fund raising for research or treatment. My goal, however, is to stop cancer from developing in the first place. In these pages, I address the ultimate roots of cancer, providing the public with strategies and tools to avoid or reduce exposure to cancer risk factors in our homes, our workplaces, and the larger community. In memory of my father for his exceptional kindness to others and contribution to medical research, I am dedicating this website to enhancing public awareness of daily cancer risks. Serving as an educational resource to advance public knowledge on cancer prevention, this site is designed to help you make wise, well-educated decisions in your daily life. It empowers you to take preventative care before it is too late. Together we can make a difference in reducing the incidence of cancer and save more lives. I very much look forward to helping you with any concerns and questions you have about cancer prevention, and value thoughtful dialogue. Please feel free to contact via e-mail or directly.
