Advances in the world
of medical science—and cancer research in particular—make
the difference in earlier detection and treatment,
as well as living well and living longer. Dr. Maura
Gillison is a leading expert in the study of the
human papilloma virus (HPV), she was the frst to
identify HPV as the cause of developing certain
head and neck cancers and now considers risk factors
associated with these cancers. Dr. Gillison, the
frst holder of the Jeg Coughlin Chair in Cancer
Research, plans to develop a program focused on
identifying links between infections and cancers.

a check for The JEGS Foundation. |
The recently contested Mr. Aruba's
Bench Nationals and Charity Challenge raised $4,000
for the JEGS Foundation's Racing For Cancer Research
on a chilly day in late January. However, the weather
did little to cool the generosity of the participants,
who gave early and often at the event.
The annual event was once again organized and promoted
by Mike DeChicco and Jane Graebner, aka Mr. and Mrs.
Aruba. |
