Countless questions need to be answered about cancer, but we also need to think deeply about the tools that we choose to answer those questions. PhD student Bernat Navarro shares with us what makes pancreatic cancer particularly scary, and how cancer tumor organoids might be the perfect method to balance many scientific needs when we study cancer. You're sure to leave this episode feeling inspired to trust the process of science!
