Medical Discovery News, June 6, 2009
Cancer is on its way to becoming the No. 1 killer in the world. "Cancer used to be ‘the disease' of highly industrialized countries. Today, that's no longer true. An astounding fact is that, globally, more people die from cancer than infectious diseases such as AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria combined." Medical Discovery News, hosted by UTMB's Norbert Herzog and David Niesel, is broadcast by nearly 100 stations in the U.S. and Mexico. Locally, you can hear the program at 10 a.m. on Saturdays on KUHT, 88.7 FM and KTSU, 90.9 FM.
