Cancer biologist Andre Ventura explains how his lab uses genetically engineered mouse models to understand how cancer works, why we get cancer, and how his research helps discover new targets for cancer therapy.
{partial transcript}
What I would like to do right now is bring up one of the stars of tonight, Dr. Andre Ventura.
I told the three of them that I would not read aloud their bios, since it’s in the handout provided. You can read about all the cool things that they have done and all the things that they’re distinguished for.
I want to give just a little introduction to you all about why Andre’s work is so important. About ten to fifteen years ago, we became to appreciate their biologist evolutionary process that evolved from very simple molecules to become organized cells.
We needed to know what was the first molecule that really mattered and started to create life. That molecule by all estimates is an RNA molecule. That started a change in all of our thinking about biology, which is that we used to think of RNA as this very simple information transfer between critical information stored in the DNA and your cells.
