In this episode, our guest is Dr. Taher Saif, Professor at the University of Illinois and a pioneering researcher whose unconventional path took him from civil engineering to biomedical breakthroughs. Dr. Saif shares a fascinating journey through academia and research—from nanotech in electrical engineering to fertility diagnostics, and ultimately to cutting-edge cancer and longevity research. He discusses how mechanical forces in tumours impact cancer treatment, how lab-grown patient tumours could personalise therapies, and how simple lifestyle habits like brisk walking can regenerate brain cells even late in life. This is an inspiring and deeply insightful conversation on resilience, interdisciplinary science, and hope for the future of medicine. Please join to find more.
