An empowering evolution in cancer research, however, suggests we have far more control over our risk than previously thought.&nbsp;</p><br><p>I’m excited to talk to Dr. Thomas Seyfried about the underlying causes of cancer and why addressing metabolic dysfunction is a very important and often overlooked area of its prevention and treatment.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Dr. Thomas Seyfried is an American professor of biology, genetics, and biochemistry at Boston College.
