17 year old finds cure for cancer

Maybe all that cancer research money is going to the wrong place.
A 17 year old high school student, Angela Zhang, found a legitimate and very exciting new way to treat and kill cancer cells…in her spare time.
Stanford University School of Medicine in California is testing her theory on mice and it’s working like a charm.
If I was a middle aged PhD with a million dollar grant that came from thousands of donations and nothing to show for it, I’d feel a bit foolish right about now….
What has your 17 year old done today?

Could you print a synopsis of the story — we here in Canada can’t access this video — CBS has made it ‘unavailable’ outside the US.
