  • Gregory Weiss, UC Irvine chemistry professor, talks about “unboiling” egg white proteins and returning them to their original state. The ability to quickly restore molecular proteins could slash biotechnology costs and dramatically reduce the costs for cancer treatments. He also talks about a personal reason for his professional pursuits.

    I wonder who are the people that dislike videos like this...
    This is an amazing achievement in cancer treatment!

    "Everyone wins"... except for hospital oncology departments, oncology doctors and oncology pharmaceutical companies. Sorry, but, although your research is stunningly amazing and ground breaking, not "everyone wins". In the end it'll be your small budget lab vs. the giant oncology industry. Guess who'll win then?

      Brandon S. Brandon S. Not true. First of all, oncology wouldn’t disappear as a field; it would grow because now it would have more ways to treat cancer. Secondly, I believe that doctors going into oncology would be happier saving patients than losing them to cancer . Lastly, when has anyone ever worried about a pharmaceutical company “making it” in business? I think that , as someone who has experienced cancer, nothing else matters in that moment except beating that disease. End of story.

      @@bobolatrick - I never said “oncology would disappear as an industry”. My point is that the giant companies will do what they always do… patent this and then charge so much that only the elite multimillionaires can afford it.
      We all have cancer… all the time. The difference in most people who are diagnosed with cancer and those that aren’t is that the cancer overwhelms their immune system. Time is much better spend focusing on research that informs us how to reduce immune overload and strengthen the immune system. End of story.

      @@littlebirdling238 - when big pharma steals this and charges $1 MM per protein then you’ll see just how much the patient “wins” with this approach.
      We already have a cure for most cancers… it’s called the human immune system. Focusing on that is where the real work is done to help patients.
