Episode Notes

In this episode of On the Edge of Breakthrough, Dr. Monty Pal is joined by Dr. Stephen Forman, a giant of cancer care and  hematologic malignancies and pioneer of cellular immunotherapy. 

Dr. Forman reflects on decades of progress in bone marrow transplantation, CAR T cell therapy, and the future of cellular therapies. But this conversation isn’t just about lab science. It’s about the human side of innovation: the infrastructure, access, and emotional support needed to truly care for patients through some of the most complex treatments in cancer care.

Dr. Forman also explains the urgency of expanding healthcare access, and reveals the  best practices for building scalable models to deliver the next-generation immunotherapy for patients who need them now.

Listen as they unpack what it means to move from an innovative experiment in the lab  to real impact on the front lines of cancer care.
