Dr. John Dick on Stem Cells & Blood Cancer

Our conversation explores the work of John E. Dick, Ph.D., FRS, senior scientist and cancer research chair at the Princess Margaret Cancer Centre and McEwen Centre for Regenerative Medicine, of the University Health Network; professor of molecular genetics at the University of Toronto; and co-leader of the Acute Leukemia Translational Research Initiative at the Ontario Institute for Cancer Research.

Dick's research focuses on the role of stem cells in the development of blood and blood cancer. In the mid-1990s, Dick was the first to identify cancer stem cells, transforming our views on the origin and nature of cancer. Because cancer stem cells survive conventional chemotherapy treatment and regenerate, his discovery has important implications for cancer therapy.
