8.  1. Where did you go to college at?

School.

9.  2. Where do you currently work?
 -School of Medicine at Colorado University.

10.  3. What type of work are you doing on lung
cancer?
 - I have been working on testing lung cancer
on a molecular level.

11.  4. Why is this important?
 - This type of testing can provide new insight
on this type of cancer, which can lead to
many things, including helpful treatments.

12.  Most research being done on lung cancer, is
how to remove it in a more safe and efficient
way. Since the lungs are needed for humans
to breath, saving them is extremely
important.
 Other current things being done, are massive
campaigns against the use of tobacco
products, because they are the leading cause
of lung cancer.
