CanDoR Tools
Canadian Cancer Statistics Dashboard
In collaboration with the Canadian Cancer Society, our group has developed an interactive dashboard to deliver up-to-date projectred estimates of cancer incidence and mortality in Canada. These data visualizations align with the yearly Canadian Cancer Statistics publication.
ComPARe Project
The ComPARe Project delivers estimates of the proportion of cancer cases in Canada attributable to modifiable lifestyle and environmental exposures. This dashboard allows for exploration of these data and further information regarding cancer risk factors.
All-Cancer Projection Dashboard
This dashboard allows for projections of cancer cases, deaths and costs in Canada using the OncoSim microsimulation tool, developed by the Canadian Cancer Society and Statistics Canada.
These data were sourced from our previous publication:
Pader J. et al., Estimates of future cancer mortality attributable to modifiable risk factors in Canada. (2021) Can J Public Health doi: 10.17269/s41997-020-00455-7
