Episode overview

In a battle against cancer, could viruses be our allies? When Croatian virologist Dr. Beata Halassy’s breast cancer returned for the third time, she made a bold decision: to experiment on herself using millions of viruses grown in her own lab. Viruses love cancer cells, which helped her turn them into a weapon against her own tumor. What happens when you infect cancer with a virus, and could virotherapy become a powerful new tool against cancer?
