Summary

On Passion Struck, John is joined by Michael Marquardt, former Chair of the American Cancer Society and CEO of Epi-One, to explore groundbreaking breakthroughs in early cancer detection. The two dive deep into how epigenetic signals in the DNA molecule are revolutionizing how we diagnose cancer, offering hope for earlier and more effective treatments. Don’t miss this insightful conversation on the future of cancer detection!His personal experiences with cancer, including the loss of his first wife, have driven his dedication to revolutionizing cancer detection and treatment. The episode shed light on the advancements in cancer research and the critical role of early detection in improving outcomes for cancer patients.Full show notes and resources can be found here: https://passionstruck.com/michael-marquardt-breakthroughs-cancer-detection/SponsorsBabbel is the new way to learn a foreign language.

I firmly believe we're at an inflection point

0:05.1

in terms of the amount of resources have gone into cancer research.

0:09.0

When I meet young researchers, old researchers, I can see it in their eyes, they're saying, we're starting to figure this out.

0:16.0

I was introduced about a year and a half ago to a woman in New York City that had made a discovery that the best way I can explain it to your

0:24.1

listeners is that there's a section of the DNA molecule, section of the genome

0:28.4

that has been forgotten by science. It's a big molecule. You say, yeah, that part we don't really worry about.

0:34.6

And she discovered it's an epigenetic section of the DNA molecules, maybe the way to say it,

0:39.9

that when cells turn cancerous, at the very beginning when it's really stage zero,

0:44.8

when cells turn cancerous that there is a signal, it's not a radio signal, but almost like a

0:49.7

signal that starts broadcasting on that part of the DNA molecule that is so strong that if you know what you're looking for.

0:56.0

If you don't know what you're looking for you'll never hear it or you never see it.

0:59.0

But if you know what you're looking for, you can actually detect it with very standard laboratory equipment and so

when you first hear this you're like wow there's no way and frankly that was my

reaction. Welcome to Passionstruck. Hi I'm your host John R Miles and on the show we decipher the secrets, tips, and guidance of the world's most
