In January, Professor Richard Scolyer was named joint Australian of the year with his colleague and friend, Professor Georgina Long. The pair were recognised for their lifesaving melanoma research. Richard has dedicated his life to cancer research and treatment, but 18 months ago, his world was turned upside down when he was diagnosed with brain cancer. He's since become patient zero for a groundbreaking immunotherapy treatment, based on the melanoma discovery he pioneered with Georgina Long. Professor Scolyer joins us in today's deep dive to talk about the future of brain cancer treatment, and the legacy he's hoping to carve out.

You can order Richard's book 'Brainstorm' here.
