Edith HeardCollège de FranceEpigénétique et mémoire cellulaireCours 2023-2024Conférence - Harold E. Varmus : How Do Scientific Discoveries Affect the Way We Live? How Studies of a Chicken Virus Changed Cancer TherapyHarold E. VarmusPrix Nobel de physiologie ou médecineRésuméThe main theme of the second lecture concerns the way in which fundamental biological research (as an example, my own work to identify and characterize the genes that produce cancers in animals) can produce important benefits for society (e.g., by leading to better treatments of common lethal human diseases, like cancer). I will also comment on the societal elements (commercial, regulatory, etc) required to change medical practice after scientific discoveries are made.
