In the near future, at a time when Roe v. Wade has been overturned and abortion is illegal, cancer researcher Dr. Frank Glass determines that he can create a cure for cancer by combining fetal stem cells with a special enzyme from a rare frog on the Endangered Species List. Frank's lover and research associate Dr. Kelly Monroe allows herself to become pregnant so that Frank can abort the fetus and harvest the fetal stem cells. After the abortion, Kelly Monroe suffers a change of heart. She reveals what they have done, publicly denounces Frank, and then suffers a mental collapse and attempts suicide. What follows is a firestorm of public denunciations against Dr. Frank Glass and his cure, forcing him to battle an entire society in defense of his cure, a battle pitting him against everyone he holds dear: the woman he loves; his best friend; his mother; the university that employees him; his research team; the law; and every church and religious pressure group in the country. Exploring the theme of science versus religion, The Serum is an intense drama of ideas dealing with issues taken directly from today's headlines.
