Season 2, Episode 2 Robert Gatenby Moffitt Cancer Center
Welcome to Shaping Our Story with host Louise Krikorian—where inspiring leaders share their passion, purpose, and perseverance to help you thrive.
In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Robert Gatenby, Chair of Diagnostic Imaging at Moffitt Cancer Center and a pioneer in evolutionary oncology. As the founder of the first Cancer Biology and Evolution Program in the U.S., Dr. Gatenby is redefining how we understand cancer through Integrated Mathematical Oncology, game theory, and adaptive therapy.
🔬 What You’ll Learn:
- Why cancer evolves and becomes resistant to treatment
- How mathematical modeling is transforming precision cancer care
- The role of adaptive therapy in managing cancer long-term
- Why cancer may be treated as a chronic disease—not just cured
- The power of perseverance in groundbreaking scientific discovery
Dr. Gatenby shares his journey from traditional radiology to challenging decades of conventional cancer treatment—and why thinking differently could save lives.
