I think one thing that's overlooked in Cancer research is how much ground has been, and will continue to be broken in terms of basic biological research to solve the problems required. To even define and understand the problem properly we have to solve a bunch of things. Then to get to a solution a bunch of other things need to be figured out and can be integrated into humanities knowledge base. On top of that things can be dragged in from other fields to get a sense of how biology responds at various scales: genetic, tissue, organ, system, whole person. It's a perplexing and fascinating disease to grapple with.
