Genomic Repairman Posted February 17, 2010 Posted February 17, 2010 Hey guys, I'm in the process of posting an old (circa 1997) BBC documentary on my YouTube channel. Its filmed in a kind of crappy film noir style way but its pretty good. It details the history of the cells, contamination issues, the failed War on Cancer campaign, and the ethical issues of the cell line. Its got some good interviews with good scientists and unfortunately with one shitty one, an evolutionary biologist (and before you bust on me, I've got nothing against evolutionary biologists, just speak on the topic in which you are an expert) who has no experience with molecular or cancer biology rambling about how genetics will never create a solution to cancer. Apparently he has never heard of Gleevec and I surmise that they chose him for the documentary because he would make some controversial statements. Sorry I had to break it into 8 parts but YouTube would only let me post so much at a time. Full run time is 59 minutes. Genomic Repairman 1
