Promise for the Future in Yesterday's Remedies: Traditional Therapies to Modern Medicine
Vikas Sukhatme, M.D., Ph.D., presented this lecture as part of the Stephen E. Straus Distinguished Lecture in the Science of Complementary and Alternative Medicine series. Dr. Sukhatme talks about the availability of existing scientifically promising, affordable, and immediately available medical treatments. Traditional medicines have a long history of use and efficacy and offer viable options in addressing other conditions, including cancer. Among these traditions is lifestyle manipulation, specifically dietary adjustments and stress reduction/control, both of which show promise in treating certain forms of cancer. Though more research is needed, Dr. Sukhatme realizes the importance and benefits of studying existing therapies for application to other medical conditions
Dr. Sukhatme's research has spanned numerous basic science and clinical arenas, including the discovery of a family of mammalian transcription factors induced by extracellular growth and differentiation cues, and studies on the function of several genes important in kidney cancer and in polycystic kidney disease. His major current interest is in tumor metabolism and tumor immunology and on "outside-the-box" approaches to therapies for advanced cancer.
Dr. Sukhatme is the Victor J. Aresty Professor of Medicine, Harvard Medical School, Chief Academic Officer and Harvard Faculty Dean for Academic Programs, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center.
