What do stem cells have to do with cancer? Why, in order to understand a tumour, do we also need to look at its surroundings? And how long is the journey from a laboratory discovery to its application in medicine?
In this episode of the Excellenceair podcast, our guest is Prof. Małgorzata Maj from the Faculty of Medicine at the Collegium Medicum of Nicolaus Copernicus University, whose work combines stem cell biology, regenerative medicine and cancer research.
We discuss the possibilities and limitations of modern research, experiments that help us better understand the disease, and everyday life in science – full of curiosity, challenges and ideas that do not always end in success.
Come aboard Excellenceair and get an inside look at science. Listen to the episode ‘Beyond Cancer Cells’ on Spotify and Apple Podcasts.
