I encourage anyone thinking about donating to cancer research to take a biology 101 level class.
Saying "I'm researching a cure for cancer" is like saying "I'm researching a cure for old age". Giving them more money will not help anyone.
As a biology major, I totally disagree with you. Can you explain your reasoning?
Cancer is a result of decaying DNA. The technology required to affect all of the cells in a body that have out of control growth due to this issue (especially after the cells metastasize) doesn't exist and is less realistic than actually reversing the natural decay of DNA. Hence my comment about a cure for aging.
