The First Line of Defense: Primary Care Clinicians and Early Detection of Pancreatic Cancer

By: Kenner Family Research Fund
  • Summary

  • The First Line of Defense is a 4-part podcast specifically created for primary care clinicians on how they can recognize symptoms and risk factors of pancreatic cancer – including what the future holds for diagnosing patients using ever-developing technology, including AI. Kenner Family Research Fund and Entertainment 2 Affect Change have partnered to share the stories of pancreatic cancer patients, primary care physicians, leading researchers, and specialists in the field. The goal of this podcast is to educate an informed, but not expert, medical audience on the current state of pancreatic cancer diagnostics, and provide usable tools for clinicians to walk away better equipped to detect a potential pancreatic cancer diagnosis. We want to raise awareness and provide tools for clinicians.
