Episode Details

For more than four decades, Dr. Azra Raza has pursued a radical idea at the heart of her acclaimed book The First Cell: What if, instead of chasing cancer to its last cell, we could stop it at the first cell? A renowned oncologist, researcher, author, and lifelong student of poetry, Dr. Raza joins William Shatner and Melanie Shatner Gretsch to explore her quest to transform cancer care, the technology that could make continuous early detection possible, and why the future of medicine may depend on finding disease before it advances. Along the way, they discuss grief, hope, the doctor-patient bond, and what confronting mortality can teach us about making every moment count.
