Lowering the Risk of Childhood Cancer by Decreasing Exposure to Pesticides Name of the Student Name of the Professor Abstract Pesticides are routinely used in agricultural and domestic household settings for controlling pests. However, the health hazards imposed by different pesticides are an area of global concern. The risk of childhood cancer is strongly associated with residential pesticide exposure. The article presented a research proposal on reducing the risk of childhood cancer (related to pesticide exposure) in at-risk individuals. The prevalence of childhood cancer in Pennsylvania is also higher than the U.S. national average. The proposed study would include participants belonging to a chosen demographical area. The chosen demographical area for the present study would be Philadelphia, 19104. The proposed research would implement a pesticide control program in at-risk individuals. The study would explore the risk of childhood cancer by reducing the level of pesticide exposure and addressing different health determinants in at-risk individuals. In the near future, the proposed mitigation program might prevent the risk of cancer in at-risk individuals. Hence, the proposed study may help policymakers in framing guidelines for reducing the risk of childhood cancer. On the other hand, the research proposal is viable, cost-effective and feasible within the stipulated period of two years.
