What if a simple test could save your life, but too few people actually get it? Through her PhD project within HealthIntelAct, Martina Mencarelli is investigating how to strengthen cancer screening in Romania, where participation remains low despite the proven benefits of early detection. By identifying barriers to participation, assessing screening information systems, and developing evidence-based recommendations, her research aims to improve colorectal cancer screening, reduce inequalities, and ultimately save lives. Because access to prevention should not depend on where you live, your income, or your background. At HealthIntelAct, we believe data and research can help build more people-centred, equitable, and sustainable health systems. 👉 Follow our page and discover more about our research at https://healthintelact.eu/ #HealthIntelAct #CancerScreening #PublicHealth #HealthEquity #CancerPrevention #PhDResearch #PopulationHealth #MarieCurieActions #HealthSystems
