#133: Tobacco to HPV: A New Era of Head and Neck Cancers
In this episode, Noor sits down with Dr. Tony Eskander, head and neck surgeon and scientist at the University of Toronto, to unpack the evolving landscape of head and neck cancers. Once primarily associated with smoking and alcohol, these cancers are increasingly linked to HPV, particularly in younger patients, a shift that’s reshaping how we think about risk, equity, and prevention.
Dr. Eskander breaks down the various kinds of head and neck cancers, from oral cavity to nasopharyngeal cancers, and highlights how different populations are disproportionately affected. Tune in for the first episode of our Head & Neck Cancer series.
