Cancer Research


Who said scientists were boring people?

McGill University, in Montreal, Canada is carrying out an awareness campaign to highlight the importance of the work they are doing at the Goodman Cancer Research Centre. Thus, they got together scientists, students, lab technicians, volunteers and recorded this sort of lip dub in lab spaces around the research facility featuring Taio Cruz´s song Dynamite


When we think of real scientists working on cancer research, we can easily figure their passion for solving issues affecting human health but we never picture them actually having fun - and that´s what makes this video great.



Their sponsor, Medicom, will make a donation to this great cause to support advances in cancer research at the Goodman Cancer Research Centre, so click, enjoy and dance along with these amazing people.

    I have just see the video, and I think that it's really amazing! The video is a very entertaining and fun way to raise money and awareness to the society about deseases like cancer. In addition, in my opnion, this kind of activities unite the research center's workers and makes them forget the problems for a while. Also, in some way, it breaks with the idea of ​​boring scientists that all people have in in our heads, proving that behind any job, you can find all kinds of people.

    I think that scientists can be funny people although they have to find cures for many diseases that they exist today and diseases that already existed. Becuase I think that all people have a fun side and a serious side and depending on the situation in which they are used one or another.

    I think this video it's very real because, Why scientists have to be boring people?
    It's nice to have another vision of a job because, if you don't have a bit of joy in your job, you will never do the things wiht the same satisfaction. It´s nice to see things like this!

    I think that this is a good way of seeing that every job has its funny side, and if you like your job, it will not be boring, because you will be working and having fun at the same time.
