On February 12th 2023, Yes to Life, the UK’s integrative cancer care charity, will be hosting what promises to be a thrilling live exploration of a fresh perspective on the mechanisms of cancer. Following eight years of intensive study and research, Mark Lintern will be introducing himself and giving a detailed explanation of his ideas that present a coherent view of carcinogenesis, and have the potential to explain all ten of Hanahan and Weinberg’s hallmarks, as well as to enable an understanding of a further twenty hitherto unexplained features of the disease.
If you are a cancer specialist, you will be well aware of the potential implications of this for both treatment and prevention. But any claimed new thinking about such a thoroughly well-researched disease must be able to stand up to intense scientific scrutiny, and that is precisely what the content of this event will constitute. Three expert panels – of cancer scientists, cancer clinicians and expert patients – will have ample opportunity to question every facet of the thinking, as well as to register their confidence in it, and suggest how we might take things forward.
The Esteemed Panellists:
To ensure a thorough evaluation of these new proposals, we are delighted to welcome these leading thinkers in the field of cancer to our panels:
Scientists: • Prof Paul Davies • Dr Ahmed El-Sakka • Dr Robert Gatenby PhD MD • Prof Michael Lisanti MD-PhD FRSA FRSB FRSC
Clinicians: • Dr Sean Devlin DO MD(H) HMD MS • Dr Nasha Winters ND FABNO • Dr Penny Kechagioglou MBBS (Honours), MRCP, CCT (Clin Onc), MPH, MBA Clinical Oncologist Expert Patients: • Jane McLelland • Daniel Stanciu • Mark Sean Taylor
“For over 2 decades we have evolved our Hallmarks of Cancer and yet still fall short of our understanding of and treatment for this shapeshifting disease. Mark Lintern’s observations add another piece to the puzzle, taking us another step closer to characterizing this as a disease of the terrain versus of the genetics and helps us change course to a more hopeful future in cancer care and prevention.” Dr Nasha Winter ND FABNO
