Cancer problems is a leading factor for deaths in the whole world. It results in higher deaths than AIDS, tuberculosis, and other disease. Deaths from cancer around the world are expected to frequently rise . Accourding to American Cancer Society statistics In 2014, there will be an estimated 1,665,540 new cancer cases diagnosed and 585,720 cancer deaths in the US only.
A cell is the smallest structural as well as basic element in the human body. Characteristically, cells maturate and deconstruct to originate new active cells. Immediately after these cells get older or useless, they die and are replaced with clean healthy new cells. This system is regulated by genes. Unfortunately in certain cases, this organised system doesn’t start happening. Outdated and damaged cells don’t die and healthy new cells start on splitting even if one’s body doesn’t require them. Consequently, numerous tissues often called tumor or lump is formed inside body.
The tumor are perhaps not dangerous.Safe and sound tumors aren’t cancer diseases contrary to malignant tumors consist of cancer cells. The stubborn capability of the cell to expand and impact other tissues may make a cell a cancer cell. Most often these imperfect cells form a tumor though in a few other cases like leukemia there may not be any kind of tumor.
Noncancerous tumors commonly spread out little by little and don’t deliver to other parts of the body whereas malignant tumor spread out faster and interfere with adjacent body parts.
 In what way a good cell turns to bad cell
Researchers have mentioned that cancer is caused by destruction of the genes which manage cell division and expansion. The majority of cancers are genetic simply because it is a result of defective gene. The problems on genes may be the result of the interactions between an individuals genetic factors and external elements. These external elements may include physical agents, such as ultraviolet rays of the sun; chemical agents, such as cigarette; and biological agents, like infections from viruses and bacteria.
The aging process is an extra factor for the growth of this type of disease. The possibility of getting cancer raises radically as we grow older, most likely due to a accumulation of threats for those, that speeds up with age, like, those influencing ovary or bladder.
What way Cancer Develops
Cancer widely spread in 3 different procedures.
*Local spread:- This invades the nearby normal tissue and propagates further.
*Lymph vessels:- It invades the lymph nodes and vessels and moves from the lymph vessels to many other body parts.
*Blood vessels:- This invades the capillary vessels and veins and moves in the blood vessels for some other areas of the body.
Range of Cancer
They’re categorized into primary and secondary cancers. The environment at which it gets started is the primary nature. Right after this primary cancer cell breaks and is delivered within the blood or lymph vessels to some other parts of the body, it’s identified as secondary cancer or metastatic. So for example, a malignant breast tumor may grow to bone tissues, after that it’s named metastatic breast tumor. Metastatic or secondary cancers include original cells from primary site.
Varieties of cancer
There are many different varieties of cancers. Among the familiar varieties are.
*Carcinomas:- they get started from lining of internal body organs or from skin area. For illustration, squamous cell carcinoma of skin, or adenocarcinoma of stomach.
*Sarcomas:- Sarcomas get started from connective tissues that secure the body organs, like bones, cartilage, and tendons. Illustration of sarcoma include osteosarcoma of bones, or rhabdomyosarcoma of muscle tissues.
*Leukemias:- Leukemias arise from white blood cells. They are actually known as blood cancer.
*Lymphomas:- Lymphomas get started from lymph tissues.

Founders : Ezra Cornell , Andrew Dickson White

150 years ago on April 27, 1865, by the effort of an American Senator and  experienced educator Ezra Cornell and Andrew Dickson White defended the idea of cornell University. Ezra Cornell offered his farm in Ithaca, New York as a site and $500,000 of his personal fortune as an initial endowment.  The university was inaugurated on October 7, 1868. Its starting enrollment was 412 male student.Since 1894, this University has included state-funded statutory colleges and has also administered research and extension activities that have been jointly funded by state and federal matching funds.
 In 2004, the university opened the Weill Cornell Medical College in Qatar. It continues to forge partnerships with major institutions in India, Singapore, and the People's Republic of China.  On March 9, 2004, University of Cornell and Stanford laid the cornerstone for a new Bridging the Rift Center located on the Israel–Jordan border.
Cornell University will be widely recognized as a top-ten research university in the world, and a model university for the interweaving of liberal education and fundamental knowledge with practical education and impact on societal and world problems.
