There's chemo, radiation.

Is there a cure?

Ah, then should we try the yawning method?

It's not. We have no idea the mechanism.

They might be able to cure you.

Treatment? Who's talking about treatment?

Radiation therapy research platform

Vaccines that we can manufacture quickly.

This disease was terrifying.

I'm trying to find a cure. You've found a cure.

The bars represent survival time taken from the era in which there was only chemotherapy, or surgery, or radiation available.

And here's what we developed.

This is a diabetic ulcer. It's tragic.

It's a huge problem.

The lines are going to blur.

So immediately, as Francesca said, we changed our life.

And there is only one cure.

Concussion, probably. Shock.

Are you shocked?

If you'll recall, prior to that time, no matter what ailed you, you went to see the barber surgeon who wound up cupping you, bleeding you, purging you.

We call this antiangiogenic therapy, and it's completely different from chemotherapy, because it selectively aims at the blood vessels that are feeding the cancers.

And I guess I would say it's about time, because for the last 50 years the way that we have treated these kinds of auto immune diseases is through something called immunosuppression.

So a woman, age 37, presents with stage 2 estrogen receptor positive breast cancer.

There's no cure for baldness.

But he doesn't know whether it's an infection, whether it's to do with malnutrition.

So as you can imagine, that's expensive and a little bit dangerous.

Bureaucratic problems.

Well, what does this really look like?

He was undergoing a treatment chemotherapy treatments and there's a related treatment called brachytherapy, where tiny, radioactive seeds are placed into the body to treat cancerous tumors.

The shock, I guess.

90 of people who die by suicide have a diagnosable and treatable mental illness at the time of their death.

So here's an example.

So, about the worst kind of breast cancer you can get.

But this tells us how we need to think about it and where we need to go.

So now you're faced with telling your patient, first of all, that they may need another surgery, or that they need additional therapy such as radiation or chemotherapy.

Now, I should mention that Nathaniel refuses treatment because when he was treated it was with shock therapy and Thorazine and handcuffs, and that scar has stayed with him for his entire life.

This is a common case.

And if there's anything that's been learned about burn, it's that we don't know how to treat it.

let alone any disease in such black and white terms.

She is on a diet.

So we started doing some repairs.

That's going to have amazing impacts.

We are starting to understand that.

There are some experimental programs we're looking into... but those need fd a approval.
