Motshedisi Sebitloane

CESTAP study in South Africa

Dr Motshedisi Sebitloane, in Durban, South Africa, explains the impact of her work with IARC and WHO which has led to the introduction of new methods to screen and treat women for cervical cancer as part of the CESTAP study (pilot for the Cervical cancer Screening and Treatment algorithms study using HPV testing in Africa). This is of great importance as South Africa has a high burden of cervical cancer, as well as of HIV.
