"Do the right thing, for the right reason." The Sam Abraham philosophy. We often view science as amoral and objective, but like any human institution that's not true.

In this interview we speak with Sam Abraham, Vice President of Research and Vice President of Business and IP Development for the BC Cancer Agency. We discuss how findings go from the lab to the bedside and the institutional hurtles along the way.
