Robert Gorter Lecturing at San Francisco State University (04.06.2009)

This video of Robert Gorter was taken in June 2009 as a “distinguished speaker” invited by Richard “Rick” Harvey during Rick’s regular classes at San Fransico State University, to lecture on new concepts about cancer and its possible causes, and non-toxic approaches in oncology. On request of the dean, the video here presented was meant to document as a “witness.” The lectures given by Robert Gorter were seen as being “significant and representative for the University.” This video is an excerpt as a few repetitions in the course of the two-hour lecture were cut.

In this lecture by Robert Gorter, emphasis is on credible and innovative, non-toxic therapies in patients living with cancer. Among other things, attention is paid to the immune system, and the effects of “fever-range, total-body” hyperthermia (fever), applications of Dendritic Cells, Newcastle Disease Virus, etc.

After his second specialty training at San Francisco General Hospital (the main teaching hospital of UCSF), Robert Gorter, MD, PhD was a leading scientist and Associate Clinical Professor at the University of California San Francisco Medical School (UCSF) in the field of HIV/AIDS and its related malignancies from 1986 to 2008.

In this lecture, Robert Gorter explains how his research in the natural history of HIV infection helped him to conceive a different approach to the treatment of cancer: 70% of all diagnoses leading to the formal diagnosis “AIDS” are malignancies. Robert Gorter further explains his new insights not only studying how HIV destroys the immune system but also studying why there was a group of study participants who were followed over years, did not progress. He asked himself: "What do these “Long-Term, Non-Progressors” have in common that they seemed to be able to live with HIV for years without measurable progression?” From one contemplation and study came the other and aided Robert Gorter to arrive at his current concept: "The Gorter Model."
