A Conversation with Dr. Roy Jensen

On this episode of the Bench to Bedside podcast, we are doing something a little bit different. As our host, Dr. Roy Jensen - vice chancellor and director of The University of Kansas Cancer Center - is usually the one asking the questions of our expert guests, but today, Dr. Jensen is the one in the hot seat! Megan Peters - digital communications manager for the cancer center and producer of the Bench to Bedside podcast - is joining the conversation today to ask some of the questions we’ve received for Dr. Jensen, including how he began his journey to a career in cancer research and care, why cancer prevention (especially smoking cessation) is so important to him, how he and his wife, Linda, raised thier three sons follow their own paths in life, and more! You won’t want to miss this insightful conversation! After listening, we invite you to call our Bench to Bedside Hotline at (913) 588-3880 and leave us a voicemail message with your comments or questions for Dr. Jensen and the podcast team. You can also send us an email at [email protected]. Your comments and questions may be shared on an upcoming episode!
