Early diagnosis would have improved survival in many of my patients.

For Dr Nick Sears, MD, FACS, earlier lung cancer detection is critically important and grounded from decades of experience in treating all stages of lung cancer patients as a cardiothoracic surgeon.

Having operated on thousands of lung cancer patients, Nick believes earlier diagnosis can profoundly improve survival for patients and many of his patients could have benefited. His perspectives reflect the importance of early detection that leads to a definitive diagnosis, impacting outcomes.  

His involvement with AIRA Sciences, highlights the critical role, an experienced physician, can have in bringing clinical knowledge to advance early detection and better reach patients.  Largely speaking, early detection benefits all patients and families by providing more time and actionable next steps in clinical evaluation and treatment.    

At AIRA Sciences, we believe that improving earlier detection requires both scientific innovation and the involvement of clinicians who understand the challenges of diagnosing and treating cancer at all stages.

We're grateful to Nick for sharing his perspective and contributing his expertise to improving early detection and the benefits this provides.
