Hidden in the mountains northern New Mexico lies Los Alamos National Laboratory. It's shrouded in secrecy. Once known simply as Project Y, it was a classified lab where scientists built the atomic bomb. 70 years later scientists there still work on nuclear weapons, but they're also using some of that same knowledge to battle cancer. NBC News got exclusive access to the secure facility, where physicist Eva Birnbaum is working to use radioactive elements to battle cancer. She works with actinium 225 or ac-225, one of a new class of radioactive therapies called alpha-emitting isotopes. http://nbcnews.to/1UExPSo http://bit.ly/1fJ5yqZ This video was produced by YT Wochit News using http://wochit.com
