And no doubt this ‘novel’ view of cancer, coming out of Berkeley, will result in a new movement to stop the destruction of the cancer species. In other words, better for the human to die.

I would put a sarcasm tag, but I’m not sure I’m being sarcastic!

Maybe they’re evolutionary drivers.

Sharks are truly ancient critters and are practically immune to cancers of any kind.

Robert Sanders could probably get some of his fellow UC Berzerkley professors to get endangered species protection for cancerous tumors and cut costs to Obamacare, and make life easy on the death panels.

Just what we need, cancer lifeform philosophy.

Cancer is a fungus and it feeds on sugar. Sharks don’t have our Standard American Diet (SAD) of grains, pasta, flour, sugar, etc...

And virtually every other species on the planet does? Most species are susceptible to cancers.

You live long enough, you’ll get everything.

Done the cancer thing. Looking forward to arthitis, bad knees, heart disease and alsheimers.

Robert Sanders could be anyone at the school. But the name of Peter Duesberg should ring a bell with some people here.

All we need is for someone to come out and SAY that cancer is caused by anthropogenic global warming.

Hmmm cancer a new species?

Read “Infected” by Scott Sigler, then “Contagious” by the same.

Great, great books!

Does this mean that cancers are now eligible for protection under the Endangered Species Act?

Memory loss is the thing I’m worried about. And memory loss.
