Skin cancer prevention is a research area focused on developing strategies and interventions to reduce the risk of developing skin cancer, particularly melanoma. This includes studies on the effects of sun exposure, the use of sunscreen and protective clothing, and the role of genetics in skin cancer development. Researchers in this field aim to identify effective methods for preventing skin cancer, as well as increasing awareness and education about the importance of sun protection and early detection. Overall, the goal of skin cancer prevention research is to reduce the incidence of skin cancer and improve overall public health.
