Hack Cancer: How Hackers Can Help Save 9.5 Million Lives Every Year

Presented at A New HOPE (2022), July 24, 2022, 10 a.m. (50 minutes).

Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide, but there’s never been a serious attempt to cure it. We’ll never have a cure for cancer with the current approach. We need something new, a new way of thinking. In this talk, Karamoon will explain what cancer really is, why so many people get it, and why it’s been so difficult to treat. He’ll then give a blueprint for both curing cancer and for scaling the cure, because even the poorest of countries should have access to effective cancer treatments. We can and must cure cancer now. Watch this talk to find out how.
