How do we move from discovery to action in the fight against cancer?
In this inaugural episode of the Decoded podcast, Dr. Jurgi Camblong speaks with Professor Umberto Malapelle, one of the leading voices in molecular diagnostics and liquid biopsy, to explore how precision data is reshaping the fight against cancer.
Together, they decode the evolving role of pathology, tracing the shift from glass slides to genomic signals and the rise of liquid biopsy as a dynamic, non-invasive tool in cancer care.
Professor Malapelle reveals how integrating molecular insights is making diagnostics more precise, accessible, and equitable - while empowering clinicians to personalize treatment at scale.
The conversation unpacks the real-world impact of liquid biopsy, the economics of molecular testing, and why the future of cancer care depends on both collaboration and a new generation of digitally fluent healthcare professionals.
Listen in for:
- Insights on where cancer diagnostics is heading
- The power - and challenge - of integrating complex data in medicine
- Why liquid biopsy is more than a buzzword
This is the future of oncology, decoded.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
