Cancer vaccines are an area that anyone who is anyone is getting into, but it's a field  led largely by academics, not-for–profits, and specialist researchers. So this week we go back to basics - science that is. Australia may not have many cancer vaccine biotechs but – as we pointed out in episode one with the godfather of cancer vaccines, professor Dr Ian Frazer – it has heft in its research. Dr Seth Cheetham from the University of Queensland's Base Facility, a specialist mRNA manufacturing lab, explains why they went from COVID19 to cancer. And Dr Shalin Naik from the Walter and Eliza Hall Institute of Medical Research explains why he's bringing back a spectre of the past, and why he believes it could be the winner of this biotechnology cage match. Support the showProduced by Rachel Williamson and Charis Palmer.
