Dr. Anahid Jewett is a woman on a mission to find a cure for cancer. She is a Professor and Director of Tumor Immunology Laboratory and she is also a member of the UCLA Tumor Immunology subgroup, among others. For the past 26 years, Dr. Jewett has dedicated her life to figuring out why cancer stem cells (CSCs) are able to survive in patients. She believes the key is to focus on natural killer cells or NK cells, which are known to kill many different types of CSCs, including oral, pancreatic, lung, breast, glioblastoma, and melanoma tumors. To test whether NK cells could help minimize pancreatic cancer tumors, Dr. Jewett and her team developed a humanized mouse model with an intact human immune system. On this episode, she's discussing the available therapies, what her research is showing, and where we are in finding a cure.  To visit and support Dr. Jewett’s “Cure Cancer Now Foundation” at https://www.curecancernowfoundation.org/ Become a member of the Better Together community through Patreon!

If you or a loved one is in need of immediate help or support, the national domestic violence hotline is available 24/7 at 1−800−799−7233. We have two special guests on the show today. Both bringing awareness to domestic violence in their own way. Thanks to Purina, Red Rover Org & the Purple leash project, I was able to sit down with a survivor of domestic abuse named Angie. Her and her dogs are safe now, and I know her strength and story will not only move us, but educate us. We also have San Diego District Attorney, Summer Stephan who has devoted her life to protecting women, children and families and providing justice to the voiceless and most vulnerable. She is a national leader in the fight against sexual exploitation and human trafficking and was named Southern California District Attorney of the Year by Crime Victims United. Today, she’s providing us the information we need, what to look out for and how to help. 1 in 3 women experience domestic abuse in their lifetimes and shockingly only 10% of domestic violence shelters allow pets and nearly half of all victims delay leaving because they don't want to leave their pet. This is why Purina and I are taking the lead to help keep domestic abuse victims and their pets together. Purina has committed more than $500,000 through 2022 to RedRover to establish Purple Leash Project grants.
