I am a student with a strong interest in biomedical sciences and the study of emerging cancer treatments. My interest in this field is shaped by my own family history. Having seen many loved ones go through cancer, I have witnessed the financial and emotional challenges that cancer brings not only to the patient but to the family as a whole. This blog is an opportunity for me to learn through experts, researchers and individuals who have been through cancer. Moreover, I hope to better understand these developments myself while also sharing simplified explanations to a wider audience.
