William Kaelin speaks with high school students about careers in science.
That afternoon, he delivered the 2017 Lasker Lecture at Duke University, addressing one of the most fundamental mysteries of life: how do organisms sense and adapt to changes in oxygen availabilty, and what happens when something goes wrong with this essential process?
The Lasker Foundation is proud to have partnered with Duke Health for the 2017 Lasker Lecture.
