The Daily Mail ran a piece today about how advances in cancer treatment could help cancer-stricken celebrities like Patrick Swayze, and it got me thinking about the cancer-fighting innovations we've featured on TrendHunter.com.
Sure, there's the merchandise you can buy that goes towards cancer research, but that's for another cluster. These scientific discoveries are tangible breakthroughs like the Daily Mail's Patrick Swayze piece alluded to, from genetically-modified superfoods to light bandages.
Implications - What I particularly like about this series of innovations is that, collectively, they have the power to impact the quality of people's lives for the better. Leave your thoughts in the comment section below to join the conversation.
