A fascinating conversation with Salk Institute cancer research scientist Dr. Geoffrey Wahl and cancer survivor and advocate Bianca Kennedy. We discuss cancer as chameleon, artificial intelligence and Dr. Wahl's view that a patient advocate should be embedded into every research lab. And Bianca Kennedy shares her journey, family history and why she volunteers at Salk.
The show was co-hosted by Lizzie Wittig from Komen San Diego.
