We are inventing, and they just don't move forward. So I decided to form music beats cancer, and the idea of this is that it's a charity and that it supports entrepreneurs who are actively working on cancer solutions, but that lack the funding to move forward.
Imagine a world where promising cancer treatments vanish simply because they lack funding. In this episode of 'A Quest for Well-Being', Valeria Teles sits down with Dr. Mona Jhaveri, the powerhouse behind Music Beats Cancer, a nonprofit dedicated to bridging the funding gap in cancer research. Dr. Jhaveri’s journey is a testament to resilience and innovation.
Initially, she founded Foligo Therapeutics to develop a DNA-based treatment for ovarian cancer, but hit the dreaded 'Valley of Death'—a funding bottleneck that stifles many groundbreaking ideas. Realizing the urgency of this issue, she pivoted to create Music Beats Cancer, leveraging the universal appeal of music to rally communities and generate much-needed funds for cancer research. In this heartfelt conversation, Dr.
Jhaveri shares her insights on the critical need for funding in cancer research, the misconceptions surrounding success in the biotech world, and how energy and reflection play a role in her mission. The episode is an inspiring look at how one person’s vision can mobilize a community and potentially save lives. If you’re curious about how music can be a catalyst for change in the fight against cancer, this episode is a must-listen.
