SCIENCE STUDIO: Dr. Neil Spector

Duke University

  Neil Spector is an Associate Professor of Medicine at Duke University, and he joins hosts Keith Pannell and Russ Chianelli to talk about the latest advances in cancer care.  Why do patients suffering from the same type of cancer respond differently to the same treatment?  And why is personalized medicine becoming so impersonal?  Plus, Dr. Spector tells us about the experience he had with medical professionals when he was misdiagnosed as suffering from too much stress when he in fact was suffering from Lyme Disease...and nearly died.

Aired Sept 27, 2015.
