As you can tell from my recent posts, I am a bit obsessed about cancer–or more specifically something you might call the natural history of cancer. Cancers in the animal kingdom can get very strange–even giving rise to what I would call new species. Earlier this month, I gave a public talk in San Francisco as part of the International Evolution and Cancer Conference. The video is now up. I hope you find these strange cancers as spookily fascinating as I do.
In case the slides are hard to see, I’ve uploaded them via Slide Share:
