Dr. Shrikant Anant of The University of Kansas Cancer Center explains the concept of cancer stem cells that remain quiescent through treatments and radiations, only to proliferate and metastasize later on. With about 1% of cancer stem cells expressing the Dclk1 gene, Anant goes on to share how he targets this protein to kill existing tumors or prevent new ones.
