Your cat's DNA could help treat human cancer

The Current

About this episode

A new international research study on cat cancer says yes, they can! The study - which was the largest of its kind - looked at similarities in genetic mutations across human and cat cancer cells. We speak with Geoffrey Wood, a professor at the University of Guelph and the co-seniour author of the study, about the study, his team's findings, and how they could help make advancements in cancer treatment for both our favourite feline friends and humans.
