PBS – NOVA: Cuba’s Cancer Hope (2020)
English | Size: 1.77 GB
Category: Documentary
Can Cuba’s innovative lung cancer vaccines give new hope to patients across the world?
In Cuba, as in the United States, lung cancer is a leading cause of death. But decades of economic and political isolation have starved the country of medical resources, leading Cuba’s biomedical researchers to invent their own immunotherapies. Among them are lung cancer vaccines that can help jumpstart the body’s immune response to cancer. Some U.S. patients are even defying their country’s trade embargo to travel to Cuba for treatment. NOVA explores the fascinating history of Cuban biomedical research and follows the journey of two cancer patients — one from the island and one from the U.S — receiving the new vaccines. As they prove effective in some patients, Cuban scientists are teaming up with a leading U.S. cancer institute to develop an even more effective treatment by combining the best of both countries’ research and medical technologies. But can they overcome the embargo?

Scientists are peering more deeply into the sleeping brain than ever before, discovering just how powerful sleep can be, playing a role in everything from memory retention and emotional regulation to removing waste from our brains. So why are we getting so little of it?

When an enormous, $120 million Ark is built at the Creation Museum in rural Kentucky, the goal was to prove the Bible is scientifically and historically accurate, with detailed exhibits alongside animatronic Biblical characters and animals. Along with incredible access to the Ark’s preparation, We Believe in Dinosaurs unfolds through the eyes of several Kentuckians: Doug, who creates lifelike animals for the Ark, and other colleagues working behind the scenes; Dan, a geologist who blows the whistle on the Ark’s discriminatory hiring practices; David, a former creationist and frequent member of the Museum who now blogs critically about the beliefs he used to hold.
