Tim Stockwell, PhD of University of Victoria, British Columbia, Canada gives an overview of his presentation focused on alcohols contribution to the burden of cancer. Dr Stockwell mentions that after correcting for some methodological problems the rates of alcohol-caused cancer are 2-3 times higher than previously thought. Dr Stockwells research indicates that introduction of minimum unit pricing in Scotland will lead to benefits greater than anticipated by modelling studies. Recorded at the 2016 National Cancer Research Institute (NCRI) Conference in Liverpool, UK.
