Nos recherches

L’ARTAC est une association indépendante de médecins et de chercheurs, spécialisée dans l’étude biologique, thérapeutique et clinique des cancers.

C’est la seule association française de lutte contre le cancer à promouvoir une prévention environnementale. Son caractère scientifique fait que l’ARTAC est reconnue d’intérêt général. Fondée en 1984 par le Pr. Belpomme, elle place au cœur de son intérêt la guérison des malades ainsi que la protection des femmes enceintes et des enfants.

SOYEZ ACTEUR DU CHANGEMENT

Entreprises, institutions, particuliers : aidez vos proches à lutter contre le cancer en soutenant l’ARTAC

En aidant moralement et financièrement l’ARTAC, vous assurez son indépendance. Vous faites réellement progresser les recherches sur le cancer, non seulement dans le domaine des traitements anticancéreux, mais aussi dans le cadre plus vaste de la prévention environnementale, qui seule pourra permettre d’assurer aux générations futures la meilleure santé possible.
