Listen to Professor Angus Watson as he discusses the rise of colon cancer cases impacting both younger and older populations. By shining a light on these trends, Professor Watson emphasises the critical importance of early detection. Notably, educating the under 50s about recognising the warning signs and embracing essential screening procedures like CCE (Colon Capsule Endoscopy) to significantly improve health outcomes. Explore AICE’s pioneering digital health project, poised to revolutionise colon cancer detection and diagnosis, by visiting www.aiceproject.eu for more information.

Shaping the future: From SCOTCAP to AICE with Professor Angus Watson

All families are touched by cancer in some form or fashion, whether it's skin cancer or something much more deadly. The young man who's on my show next knows this very well because he lost his sister to cancer. Now, he has come up with a game changer regarding early detection. Sumit Rai is the founder of Cancer Check Labs.

In this episode we sit down with Steve Marler, the visionary behind Advanced Longevity. They discuss the revolutionary approach to early detection and preventative healthcare that Steve has pioneered, inspired by personal tragedy. Learn how Advanced Longevity is changing lives with cutting-edge scanning technology, providing early detection of serious health issues like heart disease and cancer before symptoms even appear. Discover the challenges and successes Steve has faced in advocating for a more proactive healthcare system, and hear powerful success stories that highlight the importance of taking control of your health.

Detecting Cancer And Heart Attack Conditions Before Any Symptoms -Steve Marler

Professor Kevin Brindle joins Ellie Wolmark to discuss his life's work in imaging research as he reaches retirement. Kevin is particularly interested in metabolic imaging. His research group has developed novel magnetic resonance-based molecular imaging techniques to detect the early responses of tumours to therapy, with a view to translating these into clinical application. He talks about how he got into this topic in the first place, his amazing contributions to the field over the past four decades, and about how his techniques can be translated into the clinic to impact patient treatment.

Kevin is Emeritus Professor of Biomedical Magnetic Resonance in the Department of Biochemistry and a Senior Group Leader in the CRUK Cambridge Institute at the University of Cambridge, UK. He is also a Fellow of the Academy of Medical Sciences and of the Royal Society.

Screening for Heart Disease with Katherine Wilemon & Dr. Larry Sperling

This song is a heartfelt tribute to early detection and the power of artificial intelligence and modern science. Inspired by the real-life stories of patients who discovered cancer at its earliest—and most treatable—stage, “I Took the Test (And I'm Still Here)” brings a message of hope, not fear.

As a physician, I’ve seen firsthand the difference it makes when cancer is found before symptoms ever appear. The Galleri® test is a multi-cancer early detection tool that can identify signals for dozens of cancers through a simple blood draw—many of which don’t have routine screening options.

This isn’t a song about worry. It’s about being proactive, about giving yourself and your loved ones more time, more options, and more life.

I hope this song opens up a conversation. Because sometimes the best way to treat cancer… is to catch it before it starts to shout.

Took the Test (And I'm Still Here)

"Why Me" by Dr. Elliot Lach is a deeply personal ballad that wrestles with the gratitude and survivor’s guilt of living through cancer when others did not. Written from the perspective of someone whose cancer was found early and successfully treated, it asks the unanswerable: Why was I spared? With tender verses and a soaring chorus, the song reflects on angels, fate, and the quiet advocacy that made early detection possible. It’s both a tribute to those still fighting and a vow to live with purpose in honor of those who can’t.

Why Me?

Have you ever wondered how artificial intelligence (AI) is used in research in a healthcare setting? Rebecca Wray and Bill McGough, two PhD students at the University of Cambridge, both use AI in different ways in their research into the screening and treatment of kidney cancer.

Rebecca is an MRes PhD student investigating the response and resistance to therapy in patients with kidney cancer. She uses AI to find tumour features at multiple scales. For his PhD, Bill is developing AI models that will sift through the mounds of imaging data produced during the Yorkshire Kidney Screening Trial (funded by Yorkshire Cancer Research), flagging images that show masses in the kidneys.

This interesting conversation gives insight into how researchers are using patient data safely in order for AI models to integrate all the information about a patient to help review their treatment and personalise it. The discussion also highlights how using AI in the screening setting is speeding up processes to help save clinicians' time and allowing the potential earlier detection of kidney cancer in a cost-effective manner.
