In conversation with Carl H. June, MD, Director of the Center for Cellular Immunotherapies, University of Pennsylvania
Siddhartha Mukherjee won the 2011 Pulitzer Prize for nonfiction for The Emperor of All Maladies, a “meticulously researched, panoramic history” (The Boston Globe) of humankind’s fight against cancer. It was awarded the PEN/E.O. Wilson Literary Science Writing Award, was named to numerous media outlets’ “Best of the Year” lists, and was adapted by Ken Burns into a PBS documentary. Mukherjee is also the author of the No. 1 New York Times bestseller The Gene: An Intimate History. An assistant professor of medicine at Columbia University and a staff cancer physician at the New York-Presbyterian/Columbia University Irving Medical Center, he is a physician and researcher whose laboratory focuses on discovering new cancer drugs. His articles and commentary have been published in such places as Nature, New England Journal of Medicine, The New York Times, and The New Republic. In The Song of the Cell, Mukherjee takes readers through the centuries-spanning quest to understand cells, the tiny self-contained units that make up all life.
Carl June is the Richard W. Vague Professor in Immunotherapy in the Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania. He is also the director of the Center for Cellular Immunotherapies at the Perelman School of Medicine and director of the Parker Institute for Cancer Immunotherapy at the University of Pennsylvania. Acclaimed for his research into the treatment of leukemia, he has published more than 350 medical papers and has received numerous awards and honors.

Can I ask who is financing the creation of the unit producing these unique drugs in Bangalore ? Is it public funding or a Pharma company or maybe a combination ? Thank you for a great talk.
