Here's another video in GE's 'Focus Forward' series that I'm blown away I hadn't heard of until this month! Such revolutionary ideas in all of the videos, but this one tackles one of the biggest bully killers ever... Cancer. Dr. June has found a way to cure leukemia and is using 'fire to fight fire' by taking T-cells and infecting them with the HIV virus that has been re-engineered to no longer carry disease and researchers are using the immune system reprogramming properties of the virus to literally kill cancer tumor cells by the thousands and people are being cured... Watch!

 

Carl June is an amazing man. Humble, kind and gentle. But he is also very careful about giving false hopes about this work. When I started interviewing him, I asked him point blank what he and his team were trying to do... "We are trying to cure cancer".
