A novel approach-learning from very old long lived dogs with cancer and researching how they live despite numerous cancers in their bodies and then the reason for their demise not being cancer related many times. Did you know that only Men and dogs get Prostate Cancer? What better mode to study than a dog that lives 7 human years for each 1 dog year. Much easier to study what takes place than following a human for 7 years! Gets my vote
