Lawrence Young, professor of molecular oncology at Warwick Medical School, shares the history and significance of the Epstein-Barr virus, which was discovered 60 years ago. Initially found in connection with a rare cancer in Africa, this virus is now known to be linked to various cancers and autoimmune diseases like multiple sclerosis.
