👥Biography 个人简介

Stephen Hursting is a leader in understanding how caloric restriction, intermittent fasting, and energy balance modulation affect cancer development through IGF-1 and mTOR signaling pathways. His preclinical models have demonstrated that dietary interventions can reverse obesity-driven tumor promotion in breast, pancreatic, and colorectal cancer. His work provides the scientific foundation for lifestyle-based cancer prevention clinical trials.
