Published on November 9, 2024 at 12:22 p.m.

Beata Halassy is a virologist, head of a research unit at the Center for Research and Knowledge Transfer in Biotechnology at the University of Zagreb. She has just added her name to the long list of these scientists who have decided to use their own body as a subject of experimentation, by self-administering a cocktail of viruses that she obtained in her laboratory, to treat a breast cancer.

The results of this experiment, followed by colleagues at the Zagreb University Hospital, were published in the journal Vaccines last August, and noticed by the magazine Nature who echoed it on Friday.
