The American Cancer Society is seeking cancer fighters in the Warren County area who are interested in helping to spread the word about the importance of participating in Cancer Prevention Study-3, a historic nationwide study to help researchers better understand the genetic, environmental and lifestyle factors that cause or prevent cancer.A regional kick-off event was held Thursday and champions for the study were taught how to enroll participants when sign-ups officially begin in August.“This is a once-in-a-generation opportunity for Americans to participate in life-saving cancer research,” said Marlene Delong, American Cancer Society community representative. “We are excited to offer this opportunity for area residents to participate in the study. Our goal is to recruit 15 or more CPS-3 champions in McMinnville and enroll at least 150 participants during this time.
