About The Webinar

Cancer is not a single or simplistic disease, it can arise in nearly any part of the body as it renews, develops or replenishes itself, but have you asked yourself if you know how and why this happens?

This webinar will explain the transformation of normal cells to cancerous cells, the process known as oncogenesis; it will look at what features these cells need to acquire in order to survive and go awry in the body. We will explore the common causes of cancer in domestic animals and also the effect neoplasms can have on the animal.

Our aim is to enhance your understanding of the most common cause of death in companion animals as we continue to learn from human medical advances; we hope this then promotes further interest and inquisitiveness in this very relevant subject.
