Humans of Healthcare: The Cancer Researcher

In an age where superheroes like Thor, Black Panther, and Wonder Woman occupy our imaginations, a cancer researcher may not appear to belong in that group. But it’s the scientists working to find better ways to treat and prevent cancer, who are the real heroes in our history. In this episode of Humans of Healthcare, we sit down with Professor Datin Paduka Dr Teo Soo Hwang, Chief Scientific Officer at Cancer Research Malaysia, to find out what it takes to turn lab research into life-saving innovations.
