Send us Fan MailWelcome to Episode 22 in our Experts On Point podcast series brought to you by The Oncology Podcast. Could ancient salt-loving microbes found only in salt flats herald a new kind of biomedicine? Could their sun-protective antioxidative reactions be harnessed in the development of new treatment options for hard-to-treat cancers like triple-negative breast cancer?  In today's episode, we are transported to Spain  - join our Host Rachael Babin in conversation with Professor Rosa María Martínez-Espinosa, whose research group recently discovered the potent antioxidant activity of haloarchaeal carotenoids found in the Santa Pola salt flats, just outside of Alicante. We hope you enjoy listening.For news and podcast updates subscribe to The Oncology Newsletter,  a free weekly publication for healthcare professionals with an interest in oncology.
