Highly recommended video--do not miss the second half
I wanted to add some input on Chinese hamster ovaries, having heard a funny talk by Ronald Levy, MD who invented Rituxin, pretty much the first monoclonal antibody before Herceptin(it is for lymphoma)
I remembered there was a podcast of one of his lectures, and this one contains an inspirational, uplifting talk by an 18 year survivor on the monoclonal antibody whose development he is credited with.
He is a humble, inspiring type--I will withhold info on the survivor (who is a prolific writer, so many of you may have read her books)
Video is 51 minutes (I am sure some may have trouble some lingo in the first half (apparently it is from a Grand Rounds presentation, but don't give up!)
