Episode description as stored

What happens when a journalist turns the lens on herself — and uses what she learns to change how communities face cancer? Ysabel Duron, Founder, President, and Executive Director of the Latino Cancer Institute, reflects on how her stage II Hodgkin’s lymphoma diagnosis in 1999 became a personal and professional turning point — one that inspired her to help children, families and communities confront fear, stigma, misinformation and the silence that often surrounds cancer. Watch the episode on YouTube. Featuring: Ysabel Duron, Founder, President and Executive Director, The Latino Cancer Institute Host/Producer: Carol Vassar Duron's recent article in Springer Nature: Climate Change, Cancer, and the Importance of Community Engagement .
