Scientists have discovered what makes sleeping breast cancer cells wake up in the lungs, and a drug that can potentially stop this from happening

In this video, I'll explain the science behind the study, tell you more about the drug Imatinib that stopped the cancers growing, and explain what this means for you in the future
