David S. Alberts, MD In my 44th year as a faculty member at the University of Arizona Cancer Center, I want to thank my research colleagues and the administration for giving me so many outstanding opportunities to express my adventuresome academic spirit for so many years. The University of Arizona Cancer Center has been an exciting and inspirational place to work! First and foremost, I would like to pay tribute to Lisa Hess, Ph.D., who is a brilliant cancer prevention researcher with a wide breadth of detailed knowledge in cancer chemoprevention, healthcare outcomes, and clinical trial design and management. I have benefitted greatly from her wisdom, vision, and outstanding editing capability over the past 25 years. I also want to thank all of the “Friends of the Cancer Center,” who have made seminal donations and continuous personal efforts to our life-saving and health-promoting laboratory-based cancer prevention research programs. These kind and giving individuals
are too many to name, but a few that stand out include family and friends: Bruce and Betty Alberts, Tim Alberts, Ron and Emily Axelrod, Tim and Diane Bowden, Barbie and Michael Koff, Kaja LeWinn, and Sabrina
