Cancer has inhabited earth for longer than humans have, but we don’t have a one-fits-all, silver-bullet cure. From Egyptian mummies and medieval wolves, to precision medicine and microscopic evolution, we take a look at the past to find out why curing cancer is more complex than we think, and what is needed next to get us closer to a future without cancer.  In this latest episode of That Cancer Conversation, we hear from Dr Alanna Skuse, Dr Mariam Jamal-Hanjani and Sir Leszek Borysiewicz to help us scratch the surface of the age-old question, “Why haven’t we cured cancer?” Find out more about our three fantastic guests: Dr Alanna Skuse  Dr Mariam Jamal-Hanjani  Sir Leszek Borysiewicz  Find out more about the research discussed: A history of cancer – Construction of Cancer in Early Modern England TRACERx trial The PEACE trial  You can listen and subscribe for free on Apple Podcasts, Spotify and wherever you get your podcasts.
