Dr. Hadiyah-Nicole Green - Revolutionizing Cancer Treatment
In this powerful episode of Lunch with a Luminary, we sit down with Dr. Hadiyah-Nicole Green, the second African American woman to earn a PhD in physics. As part of our Invest Fest 2024 Special Series, Dr. Green shares her groundbreaking work in cancer treatment using lasers and nanoparticles, which has successfully eliminated human cancer in mice within 15 days—without the debilitating side effects of chemotherapy or radiation.
Dr. Green opens up about the personal experiences that fueled her mission and the challenges of being a Black scientist in a field with significant funding disparities. Her nonprofit, the ORA Lee Smith Cancer Research Foundation, aims to raise $10 million for FDA approval and $100 million for full clinical trials, bringing hope for an accessible and affordable cancer treatment to millions.
