Main lines of research

search projects produced by the GCR itself or in collaboration with other national

or international institutions, along three main research lines:

• Descriptive epidemiology of cancer:

- Temporal trends of cancer incidence in Granada for adults, children and ado-
lescents

- Survival of cancer in Granada

- Estimates of cancer incidence and prevalence in Andalusia and Spain

- Rare malignant tumors (RDR Spain): definition, incidence and survival.
