The Philadelphia Chromosome w/ Joy Keys & Jessica Wapner
Now, for the first time, The Philadelphia Chromosome: A Mutant Gene and the Quest to Cure Cancer at the Genetic Level by Jessica Wapner tells in full the origin story of treating cancer at the genetic level, and unfolds the history behind many of those headlines, to help us understand exactly how targeting cancer at its root came to save so many lives. In her debut book, science journalist Jessica Wapner brings this story vividly to life. The Philadelphia Chromosome opens in 1959 with the discovery in a University of Pennsylvania lab of a chromosomal mutation (christened the Philadelphia chromosome) in which a piece of chromosome 22 breaks off and attaches itself to chromosome 9.
Wapner has been a contributor to The New York Times, Scientific American, Slate, and many other outlets, she has been writing about cancer research for the past 13 years.

The Union City Model for Increasing Student Achievement
Without question, the focus in public education is on getting all students to achieve – even in the most disadvantaged communities. In his book “Improbable Scholars,” author David Kirp argues that the New Jersey school district of Union City has hit upon a successful formula. It’s a strategy that isn’t flashy or even quick, but it may be sustainable. Mr. Kirp not only looked at test scores, but for a year observed teachers in administrators in their work. Please join host Ray Pinney as he discusses Mr. Kirp’s findings and what it might mean for everyone involved in public education.

Toyota RAV4 Presents Going Places Radio: Gabrielle Union
We know Gabrielle Union as the star of hit flicks like Bring It On and Bad Boys II. But good luck getting her to bask in her own success. “If I know I’m going to have microphones put in my face, I’d much rather use that time to help save lives,” she tells The Stupid Cancer Show host Matthew Zachary. “Being a ‘celebrity’ provides a perma-soapbox, but it’s what you chose to do with it. You can chose to sell your wares, or you can use it to make people proactive about their own health care. I try to get the word out about where to go for low- and no-cast mammograms, and push the messages of early detection as much as I can.”
