"A promising test for pancreatic cancer from a teenager"
Jack Andraka at Ted talks
Over
85 percent of all pancreatic cancers are diagnosed late, when someone
has less than two percent chance of survival. How could this be? Jack
Andraka talks about how he developed a promising early detection test
for pancreatic cancer that's super cheap, effective and non-invasive —
all before his 16th birthday.
Jack Andraka created a Cancer detector, which is a paper on carbon nanotubes, a biology lecture on antibodies and a flash of insight led 15-year-old Jack Andraka to design a cheaper, more sensitive cancer detector.
