Firefighter Cancer Research Studies
Now more than ever, CPF is committed to the fight against cancer.
From launching the groundbreaking California Firefighter Cancer Prevention and Research Program to partnering with the LA County Fire Department’s Captain Dr. Derek Urwin after the LA fires, CPF continues to support research aimed at uncovering the causes of cancer in the fire service — including early detection and prevention strategies. CPF has also partnered with researchers at Kaiser Permanente on a new California Firefighter Health Study, focused on identifying factors that may increase a firefighter’s risk of cancer.
