Cancer is just sitting there in the gene, and it's going... Waiting for that time for it to express. Eventually it's going to come out. But if you expose it to a certain environment, and this is what could be studied within the mouse models, then we could have a better idea of how the disease manifests. I personally think that and hope that my generation will be the last generation to die of cancer because technology is advancing so quickly.
In this episode, Dr Matt and Dr Mike discuss how humans realised that bacteria could fight off viruses using sequences in their DNA called, CRISPR. Today, CRISPR technology is being used to cure cancer and investigate the cause of genetic disease.
