Question: If you did find a solution, In what way would it benefit humanity?

Hopefully massively! What I am working on will hopefully lead to new cancer drugs that will kill cancer cells more specifically and so leave healthy cells alone. This would mean that for anyone having chemotherapy they would have fewer side effects and feel less ill while they were being treated. It would also mean that they would have a much better chance of surviving.
