Radically Genuine Podcast with Dr. Roger McFillin

There is a staggering prediction of 35 million cancer cases by 2050, despite increased funding for cancer research yielding stagnant outcomes. Join us as we explore insights from Dr. Jarle Breivik, a distinguished professor of medicine at the University of Oslo, renowned for his pioneering work in cancer immunotherapy. Dr. Breivik's thought-provoking analyses have ignited crucial debates on cancer's evolutionary dynamics and societal impact. 

His latest book, 'Making Sense of Cancer: From Its Evolutionary Origin to Its Societal Impact and the Ultimate Solution,' has garnered widespread acclaim for its exploration of humanity's relationship with this disease. As we confront the escalating cancer epidemic, Dr. Breivik warns that our advances in prolonging life exacerbate the cancer problem, emphasizing the urgent need for a deeper understanding of cancer and robust bioethical discussions. Tune in as we navigate the complex interplay between cancer research, human nature, and the ethical dimensions of medical research.
