Researchers at McGill's Goodman Cancer Research Centre swapped lab coats for dancing shoes in a polished new video produced to raise money for the centre.
The video, which had more than 27,000 hits in the first week it was uploaded, includes some of the centre's top scientists, students, lab techs and volunteers dancing and lipsynching to the song Dynamite by Taio Cruz.
Medicom, a medical supply company, sponsored the video and is making a donation to the centre for each hit the video receives.
