KET will show a three-night series, "Cancer: The Emperor of All Maladies," by Ken Burns, an in-depth look at the history of cancer, patients' stories and the "latest scientific breakthroughs that may have, at last, brought researchers within sight of developing lasting cancer cures," the network says in a news release.
The series, which will air March 30, 31 and April 1 at 9 p.m. ET, is based on the Pulitzer Prize-winning book The Emperor of All Maladies: A Biography of Cancer by Siddhartha Mukherjee.

On April 1 at 8 p.m., Renee Shaw will host a live call-in program, "Answers for Cancer," as part of KET's "Health Three60" series. This show will offer viewers a chance to ask questions about cancer screening, treatment and recovery resources in Kentucky.
