[fly]This is Scientific Americans: 60-Second Science, I'm Steve Mirsky. Go a minute?
Only ten percent of people die from primary tumors, the real problem is when it spreads around the body, the problem of metastasis.
Arizona state University's Paul Davis speaking at the Pen Club in NYC.
I don't think we need to cure cancer, in fact, I don't really think cancer is a disease, so much as alternative form of living matter, we don't need to cure it, we just need to manage it for long enough people die from something else.
The cosmologies was asked to study cancer by the national cancer institute.
When cancer cells spread around the body, this is a physics problem, these cells are microscopic 1 bodies being swept along in this raging torrent 2, they wriggle 3 around, they latch 4 onto surface, the drill their way through. This is a sort of language that physicists 5 and engineers can understand, cancer which said dominated by genetics and by a chemistry that's why we have, the therapies genetic 6 and chemotherapies as the main approaches, I think we can open up a whole new frontier, just by thinking about the problem in totally different way.
Thanks for the minute for 60-second Science, I am Steve Mirsky
