Michael Levin, a biologist studying regenerative and cellular regeneration, believes cancer arises when cells disconnect from the network that keeps them working towards larger goals. Cells become like amoebas, rolling back to a single-cell lifestyle with limited goals. He explains his work with the planarian flatworm as the holy grail of regenerative medicine with incredibly cancer-resistant and immortal properties.
