SUMMARY:Visiting International Professional Program Signature Lecture
DESCRIPTION:
 John A. Hannah Distinguished Professor Felicia 
 Wu will give a lecture on Carcinogens in our 
 Food: Global Impact in Comparison to Diet-Related 
 Risks. Certain chemicals and naturally 
 occurring toxins that contaminate our food supply 
 have been shown to cause human cancer. Among 
 them are aflatoxin (a fungal toxin, naturally 
 occurring in corn and various nuts and 
 spices), arsenic, and aristolochic acid. In this 
 talk, she will discuss her work with the 
 World Health Organization (WHO) to evaluate the 
 global burden of disease caused by carcinogens 
 in the human diet. She will compare the 
 burden of these risks to the global burden of 
 cancer caused by other diet-related risks, including 
 processed and red meat, and diet-related 
 obesity.\n\n
