When Malaysian farmer Ng Song Ping was diagnosed with #hepatitisC, his doctor told him that he would have no choice but to wait. Ng Song Ping waited a decade, because revolutionary new drugs were priced out of reach for #Malaysia.

In our newest short film, we tell Song Ping’s story – a story repeated countless times in Malaysia and beyond. We show how a remarkable group of partners from Egypt and Malaysia teamed up with DNDi to deliver an affordable hepatitis C treatment that can finally bring hope to those waiting for a cure.

Dr. Cripe is the Chief of Pediatric Hematology/Oncology/Blood and Marrow Transplant at Nationwide Children’s Hospital, a principal investigator in the Nationwide Children’s Hospital Research Institute, and Professor of Pediatrics at The Ohio State University College of Medicine. His insights about cancer come from 25 years of practice as a childhood cancer doctor and scientist. He has learned there is reason for hope, but suggests we need to reconsider what we know about advanced cancer biology to cure it. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx

In a fast-paced, highly informational talk, Damla Gundogdu, a Junior at the American School of Dubai, introduces and explores the viability of new cancer treatments that aim to tackle the disease through somatic gene therapy. She evaluates these treatments’ merits as well as the common skepticism that surrounds these bleeding-edge discoveries, ultimately presenting a smartly-reached conclusion on the feasibility and potential implementation of gene therapy methods. Damla Gundogdu has been living in Dubai since 2009 and is in her first year at ASD. Although she doesn’t posses the “three season athlete grind,” she does play tennis and enjoys topics regarding biology and psychology.

She will be talking about somatic gene therapy in the treatment of cancer, and will evaluate the benefits and disadvantages of somatic gene therapy as well as its approval by the FDA in late 2017.

Because Maureen’s cancer was found early, she was a candidate for a type of treatment called SAVI, which delivers radiation to the tumor site through small, flexible tubes. SAVI is finished in just five days, compared to weeks with other types of radiation treatment.

Maureen shares her experience at Sharp Chula Vista’s Barnhart Cancer Center and offers important advice for women over 40: Don’t put off getting your mammogram.
