Looking beyond the cancer cell, preparing for health care reform, analyzing bevacizumab for glioblastomas, general internal medicine, Children's Art Project's 40th anniversary, and much more.
Seed, soil and metastasis
In 1889, Stephen Paget, an English surgeon and pathologist, hypothesized that metastasis (the spread of cancer) did not occur randomly. It took nearly a century before Isaiah Fidler came along to prove him right.
With the passage of the Affordable Care Act in 2010 and most provisions due to take effect in 2014, it’s reasonable to ask what MD Anderson is doing to prepare.
A drug. A disease. Three studies. Four investigators.
Analyzing bevacizumab for glioblastomas
Patients in cancer treatment often have other health issues that can affect treatment and/or quality of life. Over the past 25 years, MD Anderson has added myriad services to handle these conditions while providing quality care for patients.
As the graduate school celebrates its 50th anniversary, its two leaders assess their first year as deans and look forward to an exciting future.
Some might call it fate. Three scientists who started their careers in different parts of the world and come from different scientific disciplines now work together at MD Anderson to develop new treatments for patients.
