Human papillomavirus (or HPV) is a common infection for men and women. Some types of HPV cause six kinds of cancers, and HPV-associated head and neck cancers are the most common in the United States and still are on the rise. This Simon Says is hosted by Dr. Rachel Katzenellenbogen, HPV researcher, and Dr. Greg Durm, medical oncologist. They discuss what HPV is, how common the infections are, how these head and neck cancers develop, the changing paradigm of treatment, new research frontiers in screening, and ways to prevent these cancers and infections.
