The most feasible way to do this is through early detection and treatme nt of cancer.  Towards this end we have developed a simple chip-based blo od assay for early diagnosis of any cancer. This diagnostic is a companion to an off the shelf vaccine for the cancer diagnosed.  More ambitiously\ , we have also developed vaccines for preventing cancer in the first place . This vaccine is currently being tested in a large-scale dog clinical tri al.  Importantly\, all these products could be priced so that anyone in t he world could have access to them.  \n\n \;\nSpeakers: \nMark Gusti n\nManaging Director\, JLL\n\nMark began his commercial real estate career in 1998 specializing in single/ multi-tenant office and back office produ ct in Metropolitan Phoenix.
