Why We're Losing the War on Cancer
Why are we so far away from finding a cure for different types of cancer? Do tests run on mice have any relevance to the efficacy on people? Is the medical community getting it all wrong and where has cancer treatment failed the patient?
My guest today is Dr. Azra Raza, the Chan Soon Professor of Medicine and Clinical Director of the Edward P. Evans Foundation MDS Center at Columbia University in New York. She is a practicing oncologist, seeing 30-40 cancer patients weekly, and has dedicated her life to the prevention of all chronic diseases, including cancer, through early detection. Her latest book, "THE FIRST CELL: And the Human Costs of Pursuing Cancer to the Last" is a national bestseller and has been translated into nine languages.
In this episode, she speaks to some of the inefficiencies the medical community creates in the treatment and fight against cancer, the human cost of cancer treatment and even dives into the connection between medicine and poetry. This was an incredibly fun, informative, and intense discussion and I know you're going to enjoy it and learn a lot.
