Post topic: Episode One: What Is Cancer		  
Cancer research and treatment is at the beginning of a whole new era of targeted, molecular treatments. This program sets the stage for understanding this. Using re-enactment, graphics and interviews, the first episode presents a clear, basic explanation of how normal cells behave and cancer cells begin. This is illustrated by following a hypothetical cancer patient through diagnosis and treatment. Featured medical experts in this program include author and MIT researcher Robert A. Weinberg, PhD of the Whitehead Institute, Massachusetts Institute of Technology; C. Norman Coleman, MD, Director of the Radiation Oncology Sciences Program at the National Cancer Institute; Mark Israel, MD, and Christopher H. Lowrey, MD, both of the Norris Cotton Cancer Center, and Andrew C. von Eschenbach, Director of the National Cancer Institute.
