Immunotherapy: A Look at the Year Ahead for 2019 Video
In this webinar for patients and caregivers, Elizabeth M. Jaffee, M.D., discusses the remarkable immunotherapy breakthroughs of 2018 and efforts to enable immunotherapy to benefit even more people with cancer in 2019. #CRIwebinar #immunotherapy
2018 was a big year for cancer immunotherapy. In addition to several approvals of checkpoint immunotherapies for new cancer types, combinations strategies involving these treatments were approved as first-line options in two cancer types and showed promise in clinical trials for several hard-to-treat cancers.
Important advances were also made with respect to immune-related biomarkers, cellular immunotherapies, and personalized vaccines.
In this webinar for patients and caregivers, Elizabeth M. Jaffee, M.D., covers these remarkable immunotherapy breakthroughs from the past year and discusses the field’s ongoing efforts to overcome the challenges ahead and enable immunotherapy to benefit even more people with cancer.
Elizabeth M. Jaffee, M.D., currently works at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, where she holds many prestigious positions, including serving as the deputy director of the Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center, the associate director of the Bloomberg-Kimmel Institute for Cancer Immunotherapy, the Dana and Albert “Cubby” Broccoli professor of oncology, co-director of gastrointestinal cancer and diseases program, and co-director of the Skip Viragh Center for Pancreas Cancer Clinical Research and Patient Care.

About the Site 🌐
This site provides links to random videos hosted at YouTube, with the emphasis on random. 🎥
Origins of the Idea 🌱
The original idea for this site stemmed from the need to benchmark the popularity of a video against the general population of YouTube videos. 🧠
Challenges Faced 🤔
Obtaining a large sample of videos was crucial for accurate ranking, but YouTube lacks a direct method to gather random video IDs.
Even searching for random strings on YouTube doesn't yield truly random results, complicating the process further. 🔍
Creating Truly Random Links 🛠️
The YouTube API offers additional functions enabling the discovery of more random videos. Through inventive techniques and a touch of space-time manipulation, we've achieved a process yielding nearly 100% random links to YouTube videos.
About YouTube 📺
