Dear Friends, 

This past year, we celebrated a momentous milestone in the history of the 

Cancer Center. 

We officially became the University of Wisconsin Paul P. Carbone Comprehensive 

Cancer Center. Additionally, the Cancer Center’s central research tower was named 

the Harold P. Rusch Translational Research Tower. 

With unparalleled leadership, Paul P. Carbone and Harold P. Rusch made cancer 

research and patient care at the University of Wisconsin their lifework. Collectively, 

they established a hard-earned, worldwide reputation for innovative cancer 

research and treatment at the University of Wisconsin. The work of the two 

men set a foundation for the Cancer Center’s evolution into the 21st century— 

integrating basic science and clinical research more quickly into new patient 

care options. 

In the pages that follow, you will read more about both Dr. Carbone and Dr. Rusch 

and the legacies they have left. 

Decades of work by distinguished Cancer Center faculty have laid the groundwork 

for improvements in health care for the people of Wisconsin and beyond. At 

the Cancer Center, the science of medicine and art of compassion are carefully 

balanced. By creatively blending the unique expertise and resources of many 

across the UW-Madison campus, the Cancer Center achieves a rich synergy of 

research, patient care, community service and education. 

In this report, you’ll meet some of our researchers, physicians and staff—people 

whose work continues to create milestones within the Cancer Center’s history. 

On behalf of our faculty and the individuals and families who benefit from their 

work, I thank you for your support of the University of Wisconsin Paul P. Carbone 

Comprehensive Cancer Center. 

Sincerely, 

m e s s a g e f r o m t h e d i r e c t o r

“Something Attempted, 

Something Done” 

Throughout his long and 

productive life, Harold P. Rusch 

(’31 BA ’33 MD) seems to have 

quietly and effectively embraced 

that sentiment. He chose it as the 

title of his autobiography and as a 

philosophy of life. 

The man, who seven decades 

ago began a career dedicated to 

understanding and conquering 

cancer, left an indelible mark 

on medical science at the 

University of Wisconsin and the 

nation. A basic scientist first, 

his contributions to the study 

and treatment of cancer were 

balanced by an equal genius in 

building and administering the 

first research center in the nation 

dedicated to studying the causes 

and potential cures for cancer. 

Ultimately, he established two 

world-class cancer centers on the 

UW-Madison campus. 

“Harold Rusch was a visionary, 

a man decades ahead of his 

“something attempted, something done” 

time,” says UW Paul P. Carbone 

Comprehensive Cancer Center 

director, George Wilding, MD. “His 

was a remarkable achievement; 

he developed not one cancer 

center, but two. People talk 

about translational research now, 

but Rusch was working toward 

creating complementary research 

and clinical programs back in the 

1930s.” 

“We didn’t realize he was 

important,” remembers his 

daughter, Carolyn Rusch 

Schlotthauer, of Florida, “he was 

just ‘Daddy.’ He was a kind, 

nurturing father and grandfather to 

Kristina and William. We were all 

so very lucky to have him.” 

Rusch was a Wisconsin native 

who grew up in Merrill, about 

20 miles north of Wausau. In 

his memoirs, he credits his 

interest in medicine to a boyhood 

appendectomy that launched a 

short career as surgeon to his 

mother’s vegetables. That early 

experience, and the influence of 

his uncle, a Milwaukee physician, 

led him to college and medical 

school at the University of 

Wisconsin-Madison. 

“He was a wonderful, gentle, 

knowledgeable person,” says his 

second wife and widow, louise 

Van Wart Rusch, “and an excellent 

judge of people.” 

While still a medical student, 

Rusch demonstrated an innate 

interest in knowing more about 

why certain treatments worked. In 

1934, a former professor invited 

him to teach physiology and 

establish a research laboratory. 

The offer forever shifted Rusch’s 

career away from practicing 

medicine and toward medical 

discovery. 

Also in 1934, the medical school 

received a bequest of nearly 

half a million dollars to support 

“fundamental studies regarding 

the nature and cure of cancer.” 

The gift, coupled a year later by 

one from the estate of Michael 

McArdle, launched the school’s 

cancer program, and Harold 

Rusch’s life work. 

“Harold Rusch was a humble yet 

forthright man who was not afraid 

to speak his mind,” says UW 

professor emeritus Henry Pitot, 

MD, PhD, who succeeded Rusch 

as McArdle director. “His goal 

was to significantly advance our 

knowledge and control of cancer 

in human patients. To realize his 

goal Rusch brought together in a 

single interactive laboratory some 

of the brightest young minds in 

cancer research. 

“While he always discussed with 

and urged his colleagues to 

develop their studies as applied to 

human cancer, it wasn’t until the 

UW Clinical Cancer Center (later 

known as the UW Comprehensive 

Cancer Center) was established 

that he came closer to his life’s 

dream.”

At age 30 and only four years out 

of medical school, Rusch worked 

with the state architect to design 

the first McArdle laboratory, a 

wing of the Medical Sciences 

Center, and, 25 years later, 

he helped design the existing 

McArdle laboratory. 

“McArdle was his biggest pride 

and joy,” says his step-daughter, 

Virginia Francis of Middleton, 

Wisconsin. “He was a natural 

teacher—he always found a way 

to enrich any experience—always 

wanted to share his knowledge, 

but he lived and breathed 

his work.” 

Rusch became the inaugural 

director of the McArdle laboratory 

for Cancer Research in 1940. It 

was the first basic science cancer 

center in an academic institution 

in the United States and from 

the beginning it was committed 

to understanding the causes of 

cancer and to training exceptional 

basic science researchers. 

Rusch was a dedicated scientist. 

In 1941 he identified the 

wavelength of ultraviolet light that 

produces skin cancer. Subsequent 

studies demonstrated a link 

between obesity and cancer, 

and his belief that cancer was 

caused by a series of biochemical 

changes became the basis for 

studies on the stages of tumor 

formation. 

Rusch is also credited with 

creating an exceptional intellectual 

environment at UW, one which 

encouraged talented researchers 

and facilitated interactions that 

sparked new ways of studying 

a problem. It was Rusch who 

recognized the potential of young 

McArdle researchers such as 

nobel Prize-winner Howard Temin, 

PhD, whose enzyme research 

helped to explain how retroviruses 

cause cancer. 

According to UW professor of 

oncology and medical genetics 

harold rusch continued his cancer research while directing 

wisconsin’s two leading cancer centers. hope 

William F. Dove, PhD, one of six 

Rusch faculty hires who later 

became members of the national 

Academy of Sciences, Rusch 

“combined a gentle demeanor 

with decisive action. This first 

enabled him to build a rapport 

as a mentor of many young 

investigators, each driven by a 

creative ego. The second allowed 

him to connect with national 

leaders, such as Congressman 

Melvin laird, to crystallize 

legislation that promoted cancer 

research funding.” 

Throughout his life Rusch served 

on panels and commissions 

designed to set national and 

international cancer policy. He 

received numerous professional 

awards and was active in many 

cancer-related organizations, 

including the American Cancer 

Society. 

In 1972 Rusch founded and 

became the first director of UW 

Clinical Cancer Center, later 

known as the UW Comprehensive 

Cancer Center (UWCCC). The 

move from basic science research 

to the treatment side of the cancer 

fight was simply a continuation 

of the same overarching vision. 

A year later, the national Cancer 

Institute recognized the UWCCC 

as one of the nation’s first 

university-based comprehensive 

cancer centers. 

Rusch hired his successor at the 

UWCCC, Paul P. Carbone, MD 

in 1976, and in 1979 retired from 

UW-Madison. He continued to be 

active in professional activities, 

frequently coming into his office 

when he and louise weren’t 

traveling throughout the world 

visiting family and colleagues. 

In 1988 Harold Rusch succumbed 

to the disease that he spent a 

lifetime trying to understand and 

conquer.

“Paul Carbone is recognized 

as a genius in his field. He 

was truly a founding father of 

cancer research and treatment. 

At Wisconsin he laid a solid 

foundation upon which we 

continue to build today.” 

–George Wilding, MD 

When Paul Carbone arrived at the 

University of Wisconsin-Madison 

in 1976, he was already a wellrespected 

and award-winning 

cancer researcher and physician. 

He came to the UW Clinical 

Cancer Center—which under 

his leadership developed into 

the internationally renowned UW 

Comprehensive Cancer Center— 

during a period of transition. The 

UWCCC had been created just 

three years earlier by Harold P. 

Rusch, MD, founder of UW’s 

McArdle laboratory for Cancer 

Research, and Rusch was looking 

for a successor. 

In Carbone, Rusch found an 

enthusiastic, talented leader with 

vision, dedication to research 

and profound respect and 

concern for people with cancer. 

a founding father of cancer research and treatment 

Celebrating 

PAUl P. CARBOne, MD (1931-2002) 

In his memoir, Rusch praised 

Carbone’s “excellent credentials 

and wide experience in both 

general medicine and cancer 

chemotherapy,” and his “deep 

concern for the problems and 

welfare of patients.” Rusch’s 

thought was to establish an 

exemplary clinical program 

to complement the already 

recognized basic oncology 

research program at the McArdle 

lab, and Carbone was the 

man he wanted to lead clinical 

oncology research at the UW. 

Says George Wilding, MD, director 

of the UW Paul P. Carbone 

Comprehensive Cancer Center, 

“Paul Carbone is recognized as a 

genius in his field. He was truly a 

founding father of cancer research 

and treatment. At Wisconsin he 

laid a solid foundation upon which 

we continue to build today.” 

A new York native, Carbone came 

to the UW after retiring from the 

Commissioned Corps as Chief 

of the Medical Branch at the 

national Cancer Institute (nCI), the 

culmination of an 18-year career 

in the Public Health Service. While 

at the nCI, Carbone started his 

20-year service as chair of the 

eastern Cooperative Oncology 

Group (eCOG), leading that 

organization to become one of the 

nation’s most respected clinical 

research groups, with studies 

conducted in more than 300 

hospitals and medical schools. 

“He was very passionate about 

his work and making lives better,” 

according to his daughter, 

physician Kathryn Carbone, MD 

’83. “He talked constantly about 

the quality of life and the need for 

people to fight cancer—even at a 

time when it was common to send 

those with a diagnosis of cancer 

home to die.” not surprisingly, as 

chairman of the Breast Cancer 

Task Force, he created a vision 

for research policy of adjuvant 

chemotherapy for people with 

early-stage breast cancer. 

His colleagues recognized 

Carbone’s dedication and medical 

acumen. He received countless 

national and international awards 

throughout his lifetime, including 

the prestigious lasker Award for 

Medicine, generally considered 

America’s nobel Prize, for 

combination chemotherapy 

for Hodgkin’s lymphoma, 

demonstrating that cancer often 

can be a successfully treated 

disease. 

He was a founding member 

and president of the American 

Society of Clinical Oncology 

and president of the American 

Association for Cancer Research. 

As the editor-in-chief of major 

oncology journals and author of 

nearly 400 publications, Carbone 

was influential in setting research 

policy, both in the U.S. and 

abroad.

In 1994, Steven T. Rosen, MD, 

then editor of Contemporary 

oncology, described Carbone as 

“... a giant in our field, a pioneer 

in clinical investigation and a role 

model to scores of academicians 

involved in cancer research.” 

Carbone’s scientific legacy is 

enormous. A member of the first 

certifying committee for the 

American Board of Internal 

Medicine for Medical Oncology, he 

helped write the first exam to set 

the standards for medical 

oncologists in the United States. 

He was also the inspiration and 

mentor for hundreds of cancer 

specialists who today continue to 

advance cancer discovery and 

care, including oncology treatment 

centers and training programs in 

Uganda, Taiwan and Singapore. 

Carbone was responsible for 

instituting medical oncology 

rotations through hospice care 

programs, and was a devoted 

supporter of the Don and Marilyn 

Anderson Hospice Center in 

Fitchburg, Wisconsin. even after 

he officially retired in 1997, 

Carbone averaged 35 hours a 

week back in the UW Hospital 

and Clinics’ “K tower,” continuing 

drug research, guiding young 

researchers and caring for 

patients. 

Outside of his cancer world, 

Carbone rode his bicycle, sailed, 

had a garden and liked to travel. 

But, says daughter Kathy, golf was 

his passion. “He loved his golf, 

even confessing one day that the 

real reason he was late to dinner 

was that he stopped for 9 holes of 

golf after returning from a trip!” 

Carbone and his wife Mary 

had seven children—three are 

physicians, one is an attorney and 

three hold MBAs—and 

16 grandchildren. 

paul carbone was a beloved clinician, fondly remembered by both 

his patients and colleagues. hope 

When son Matthew Carbone 

recalls his father, he says “He did 

what he did because he loved to 

do it, not for the recognition or 

money. As I grew up I was, and 

continue to be, so proud to meet 

his patients and students and 

learn of his achievements.” 

“He is always in my head. I feel his 

positive advice with me every time 

I make a significant decision.” 

Matt describes Carbone’s lasting 

legacies as his students and his 

children. “Professionally, he was 

a great teacher who left behind 

wonderful legacies at the UW 

but also in Taiwan, Singapore, 

Africa and China. Personally, he 

was perhaps most proud of the 

accomplishments of his children.” 

Kathy’s wish for her father is that 

his lasting memory for both his 

family and the world, be that he 

was an honorable, dedicated, 

passionate, intelligent, sensitive 

and visionary man. 

“He did what he did because 

he loved to do it, not for the 

recognition or money. As I grew 

up I was, and continue to be, 

so proud to meet his patients 

and students and learn of his 

achievements.” 

–Matthew Carbone 

When he died unexpectedly in 

2002, Carbone was still deeply 

involved in the subject that shaped 

his life—he was in the Far east, 

helping develop a comprehensive 

cancer program at the national 

University of Singapore...and 

playing golf.

f. michael hoffmann, phd, is the faculty advisor for the cancer center’s small molecule screening facility. 

F. Michael Hoffmann, PhD is 

the faculty advisor for the Small 

Molecule Screening Facility. 

The facility was established 

with funding from the UW Keck 

Center for Chemical Genomics 

and the UW Paul P. Carbone 


(UWCCC). 

How has your career path led to 

your current work? 

I first studied chemistry, then 

biochemistry, then genetics. 

I came to McArdle in 1984 

and did genetics research on 

fruit flies until about six years 

ago. now, as faculty advisor at 

the Small Molecule Screening 

Facility (SMSF), I’m combining all 

those interests—small molecule 

screening is sometimes called 

“chemical genetics.” 

What are small molecules? 

A small molecule is a chemical; 

it can be either a synthetic or a 

natural product. It is small only in 

comparison with larger biological 

molecules, such as proteins, 

which tend to be hundreds of 

times bigger. 

Why are they important to 

cancer research? 

Small molecules are important 

because some of them have the 

ability to interact with, or bind 

with, a biological molecule and 

change its activity, to either inhibit 

it or activate it. They become 

tools for learning more about the 

function of that molecule. 

Also, if we can demonstrate that 

a small molecule can affect a 

particular protein, it may open the 

door to developing a drug that 

could work on that target protein. 

Why was it important to 

establish the Keck–UWCCC 

Small Molecule Screening 

Facility at the UW? 

Small molecule screening is 

a basic research tool with 

very broad application. It’s 

been going on for a long time 

in industry, but it’s only fairly 

recently that the thousands of 

chemical compounds and the 

technology—such as liquidhandling 

robots—have become 

accessible to academic centers. 

When the facility opened in 2003, 

it was probably one of only six in 

the country. 

How does screening work? 

We have a library of more than 

60,000 chemical compounds, 

in all different shapes, sizes and 

colors. And for any particular 

assay, or trial, we add them one at 

a time and ask, does this have an 

effect? It’s kind of the old needle 

in the haystack; we’re looking for 

one compound in 60,000 that has 

an effect on an individual protein 

or distinct cell line. 

In addition to our chemical library, 

there’s a lot of great chemistry on 

campus. UW chemists bring us 

novel compounds they’ve created 

and ask us to determine if any of 

them are effective against cancer 

cells. So, we set up over a dozen 

cancer cell lines—breast and 

prostate and ovarian and lung, for 

example. We can screen a couple 

of hundred novel compounds, 

indicating to the chemist if one 

is more potent or one has some 

specificity for a cancer type. That 

helps them decide whether or not 

to do more work with a specific 

compound. 

What is the Lead Discovery 

Initiative? 

In September, the Wisconsin 

Alumni Research Foundation 

(WARF) announced the lead 

Discovery Initiative, which can 

provide funding for assays on 

new compounds for chemists, 

or for screening our collections 

of compounds for biologists. A 

committee reviews proposals from 

around campus on a monthly 

basis, and supports both types of 

research. 

Does the SMSF run assays 

related to diseases besides 

cancer? 

Yes. As with any of the UWCCC 

core facilities, the SMSF is 

open to anyone on campus; it 

is a terrific contribution that the 

Cancer Center makes to the 

entire research effort on campus. 

We are starting to do more work 

with viruses, and with infectious 

disease and heart disease targets.

Milestone 

FlOW CYTOMeTRY FACIlITY 

In 1988 the UWCCC established 

the Flow Cytometry Facility to 

serve the many research needs 

of its members. As the demand 

for its services has increased, 

both within the Cancer Center 

and on campus, the facility has 

expanded offerings to cover 

many cancer and non-cancer 

areas of biological research. 

For more than 18 years, Kathy 

Schell has worked in the Flow 

Cytometry Facility. 

What is flow cytometry? 

Flow cytometry measures 

multiple molecules in or on single 

cells at a very rapid rate in a 

liquid environment. A basic flow 

cytometer contains a laser on 

one side of a flow cell and a 

light scatter detector on the 

opposite side. 

How do campus researchers 

use the Cancer Center’s Flow 

Cytometry Facility? 

The technology has applications 

across all areas of biology. We 

offer technical assistance and 

cellular analysis to investigators 

in more than 30 campus 

departments. We have experience 

with many applications and are 

involved in developing many 

others. Our users have access to 

all of this experience. 

What sets the UWCCC Flow 

Cytometry Facility apart from 

similar facilities in the country? 

Through the Cancer Center’s 

support, we are able to maintain 

state-of-the-art instrumentation 

and have been successful in 

obtaining national Institutes 

of Health funding for major 

instrument purchases. We are 

educating our staff by sending 

them to national and international 

classes and meetings. As a 

result, the facility has a broad 

spectrum of equipment and the 

knowledgeable staff to support 

any requirements our research 

community might have. We are 

among a handful of core facilities 

with this breadth of technology 

and experience. 

What has inspired you the 

most during the course of your 

career? 

My family, and a few great 

teachers who were responsible for 

my interest in science. However, 

the research community here 

is a never-ending source of 

inspiration when they work with 

us to develop new methods 

and creative ways to use our 

technology. 

What would people be 

surprised to learn about your 

years at the Cancer Center? 

I got this job by accident. 

What are the challenges 

for people involved in your 

research? 

The biggest challenge will be 

securing funding to maintain 

the cutting edge technology we 

currently enjoy. There’s been a 

recent explosion in technology 

development, and a cytometer 

purchased for $500,000 five years 

ago will be out-of-date in the 

next five years without significant 

upgrades or replacements. 

Where do you see flow 

cytometry in the future? 

Being able to examine a single 

cell with its many molecular 

components is the power of flow 

cytometry; it will enable scientists 

to make major strides in finding 

cures and answers for incurable 

diseases. Flow cytometry and 

fluorescent image technology 

will be essential in determining 

why some cancers are more 

aggressive than others; they 

are likely to dissect the immune 

response to world plagues like 

AIDS, leading to an effective 

vaccine.

University of Wisconsin 

professor emeritus David 

Gustafson launched 

the development of the 

Comprehensive Health 

Enhancement Support System 

(CHESS), a computer-based 

system of integrated services 

designed to help individuals 

cope with a health crisis or 

medical concern. 

What inspired your research 

into using technology-based 

health education and support in 

helping cancer patients? 

I have always been interested in 

how people make health-related 

decisions. The first work I did was 

in mental health, using computers 

as a tool to help people at risk for 

suicide; then to help middle and 

high school students be more 

successful at school. I’ve always 

felt that giving people accurate, 

up-to-date information, tools they 

can use to help make decisions, 

and the support they need, is 

critical to making good choices. 

In 1990, this need for information 

came crashing home when my 

wife was diagnosed with breast 

cancer. Here I was, working 

in health decision-making my 

entire career, and yet when that 

diagnosis came, it was as if we 

were both lost and unable to 

think clearly. We had so many 

questions—but didn’t even 

know what questions to ask. We 

wanted to know the best course 

of treatment based on all the 

scientific evidence out there, but 

got different points of view from 

different providers. 

And beyond the scientific 

information, we needed practical 

information, like how and when to 

tell our children about this. It was 

a very, very difficult time. Once 

my wife and I got through this 

experience, several of us started 

working on a computer system 

specifically for women with breast 

cancer and their families called 

CHeSS—the Comprehensive 

Health enhancement Support 

System. It has now been used 

by thousands of women, and just 

last year it was translated into 

Spanish. 

Are there other CHESS 

programs besides the breast 

cancer module? 

We have CHeSS programs on 

prostate and lung cancer, which 

include an additional emphasis 

on caregivers. We also have a 

tobacco cessation module and are 

developing a module for parents 

with a child going through a bone 

marrow transplant. 

How has CHESS research 

affected the way cancer 

patients receive care? 

numerous clinical trials have 

demonstrated that CHeSS can 

improve a variety of outcomes, 

when coping with a cancer 

diagnosis. These include quality 

of life, emotional well being and 

social support. This work has 

inspired innovative internet-based 

programs to help people facing 

other health crises as well. 

I think our work has also 

challenged some early stereotypes 

about who will use and benefit 

from such systems. For example, 

our work has demonstrated that 

all kinds of people—regardless of 

income, education or experience 

with computers—will use these 

systems if given the opportunity. 

We’ve also found that our 

program can enhance the doctorpatient 

relationship. Oncologists 

have consistently told us their 

patients come in with more 

relevant questions and have better 

clinical visits when they have 

access to high-quality information 

and support. 

What is the future for using new 

media technology to improve 

outcomes in cancer care? 

There are so many ways that it 

can go. One of the biggest issues 

is making technology usable 

when people need it. Currently, 

many people use CHeSS from 

laptops—so it is somewhat 

portable. But we need to have it 

even more mobile, using devices 

such as Smart Phones which are 

part of everyday life for so many 

people now. 

We need people to get the 

information, support and coaching 

they need—where ever they are, 

instantaneously. So people waiting 

for test results won’t need to sit 

by the phone, they can get them 

through a web-enabled phone as 

soon as they are ready. We need 

to make technology so easy to 

use that it really is part of everyday 

life—making a real difference 

whenever and wherever people 

need it.

uw cancer clinics manager judy de muth, rn, ms will be retiring this year after more than 30 years in cancer care. 

Milestone 

COMPReHenSIVe CAnCeR CARe 

Since 1974, Judy De Muth has 

been actively involved in cancer 

care and all but four of those 

years have been in management. 

Change has remained a 

constant for De Muth; she has 

seen many changes in health 

care delivery, drug development 

and technology throughout 

her career. 

How has the way cancer care 

is provided evolved throughout 

your career? 

There have been many changes 

during my 30 years in cancer care. 

For example, the change from 

administering chemotherapy on 

the inpatient units to an outpatient 

setting has greatly increased. 

Today, most treatment happens in 

the clinic. The number of available 

chemotherapeutic agents has 

grown tremendously. We now 

have more agents and more drug 

combinations available to treat 

a wide variety of cancers. In the 

area of supportive care, we now 

have better anti-emetic agents, 

growth factors that support the 

bone marrow, as well as increased 

social work, health psychology, 

nutrition and integrative medicine 

support services. 

What sets the UW apart from 

other cancer centers in treating 

cancer patients? 

First, we are a comprehensive 

cancer center, providing patients 

with state-of-the-art clinical trials, 

bench research, teaching and 

clinical care. For instance, it is 

exciting to have participated in a 

clinical trial for a drug that was 

developed here and then see that 

drug or drug combination become 

part of standard therapy. 

Can you tell us what you 

have learned during your time 

at UW? 

From a nurse manager 

perspective, I have learned about 

the various aspects of managing 

an area that has grown from 

one to five clinics. With that 

came opportunities to develop 

budgeting skills, mentor staff, 

plan and manage four remodeling 

projects. I’ve learned how to 

derive satisfaction for patient 

care through the hard work and 

dedication of the clinic staff. 

From a nurse perspective, I’ve 

learned about courage, family 

relations and how serous illness 

can adversely affect a family or 

pull a family together. I always 

admire the hope and strength of 

will our patients display. I believe 

I have learned many life lessons 

from our patients. 

You have seen many cancer 

patients over the years. Are 

there any particular memories 

that you wish to share? 

I have been touched by many 

patients and families. There have 

been tears of joy and sadness 

over the years. Once, I ran into 

the mother of one of my former 

patients and she introduced me 

as the patient’s nurse as she 

gave me a big hug. Recently, a 

patient stopped me in our clinic 

waiting room. She said she’d 

been wanting to stop and tell me 

that 10 years ago—when she 

was first diagnosed and about to 

undergo chemotherapy—she was 

so distraught and I had taken her 

into a room and listened to her 

fears and concerns. She explained 

that I had been so helpful to her 

and she wanted me to know that. 

It meant so much to me to know 

that I had made a difference for 

someone. 

What is your one wish as 

cancer research and treatment 

advances in the next few years? 

There are really two areas that I 

would like to see expanded. One 

is to continue to educate society 

about the risks of cancer and 

how people can reduce their risks 

by taking personal responsibility 

for their health. Another is to 

have better access to cancer 

education, care and clinical trials 

for underserved populations. 

Do you have wonderful 

retirement plans? 

I am excited to be able to spend 

more time with my family. My girls 

live out of state and I would like to 

be able to visit them more often. 

My husband travels a lot and I am 

looking forward to accompanying 

him on some of these trips. With 

my passion for cooking, I am 

looking to take more advance 

classes. And lastly, I would like to 

explore my options for volunteer 

work.

rebecca marnocha, pharmd, leads the pharmaceutical research center. 

The Pharmaceutical Research 

Center, under the direction of 

Rebecca Marnocha, PharmD, 

ensures the safe and ethical 

provision of investigational 

study drugs to research 

subjects enrolled in Cancer 

Center clinical trials. 

Can you explain the role of 

the Pharmaceutical Research 

Center (PRC)? 

The mission of the PRC is to 

ensure investigational and study 

drugs are safely and ethically 

provided to people enrolled in 

clinical drug trials within UW 

Hospital and Clinics (UWHC) 

and the Cancer Center. We also 

educate and train health care 

providers about investigational 

drugs, clinical drug study design 

integrity and human research 

regulation; ensure drug research 

protocols proceed optimally 

through the UWHC medication 

use system and in accordance 

with all federal, state, institutional 

and sponsor regulations; and 

continually refine and expand our 

services to meet the needs of the 

research community. 

To accomplish its goals, the PRC 

offers study design assistance, 

manages all aspects of drug 

handling and accountability, 

creates informational drug 

monographs for health care 

providers, engages in training and 

quality assurance activities and 

provides a 24-hour a day, 7-day 

a week research pharmacist 

on-call service. 

While the PRC program serves 

all clinical drug researchers at 

UWHC, its association with the 

Cancer Center is unique in its level 

of commitment, formal relationship 

and in the breadth and depth 

of its services. PRC actively 

participates in the Cancer Center’s 

experimental Therapeutics 

research program, is involved 

with numerous Cancer Center 

committees, supports the Cancer 

Center’s drug list database, 

provides drug distribution services 

for qualifying studies within the 

Wisconsin Oncology network 

program and serves as a liaison 

to the Cancer Center for research 

infrastructure and UWHC issues. 

What sets the PRC apart from 

similar facilities in the United 

States? 

A quality pharmacy-based 

research support program is an 

integral factor to any institution’s 

success in conducting clinical 

drug research. The PRC program 

at UWHC has been identified 

as a model service by many 

external agencies and has been 

instrumental in creating UW’s 

successful research infrastructure 

environment. Compared to many 

academic research centers, the 

PRC program is among the largest 

but its size is not what makes it 

unique. Rather, it has been the 

integration of the PRC program 

within the UW clinical research 

infrastructure, including 

the Cancer Center and the level 

of UWHC institutional support that 

has made the difference. 

Please tell us more about your 

new role within UW School of 

Medicine and Public Health. 

The Director of Clinical Research 

position was created to make 

better connections between the 

School of Medicine and Public 

Health (SMPH), UWHC and UW 

Medical Foundation (UWMF) and 

to advance clinical research at 

UW. I am excited about serving 

in this new capacity and to be 

a change agent for the global 

infrastructure. 

I will be responsible for fostering 

positive working relationships, 

optimizing operations, assuring 

effective and efficient connections 

and unifying strategic plans within 

the clinical research infrastructure 

of the SMPH, UWHC and UWMF. 

I’ll be working to achieve a center 

of excellence by providing a safe, 

ethical, regulatory compliant, 

resource sensitive, fiscally 

responsible, efficient and effective 

clinical research environment. 

I will also be an infrastructure 

consultant to the Health Sciences 

Institutional Review Board, the 

Office of Clinical Trials and the 

General Clinical Research Center 

and a formal liaison to the Cancer

william f. dove, phd, is the program leader of the cancer genetics program. 

Milestone 

CAnCeR GeneTICS 

William F. Dove, PhD, of the 

McArdle Laboratory for Cancer 

Research, leads the Cancer 

Genetics program, which 

involves research in 24 different 

labs on the UW-Madison 

campus. 

You’re the director of the 

Cancer Genetics program. 

What is genetics? 

You may read about scientists 

finding a gene for colon cancer, 

or for breast cancer. What that 

really means is they’ve found a 

gene where a mutation makes a 

big difference. But it doesn’t mean 

that breast cancer involves only 

that single gene. A cancer involves 

many genes, perhaps thousands 

of genes. 

The basic science of genetics 

seeks the connections between 

molecules that carry out a 

process, and a phenotype, or the 

expression of that process. every 

gene can be thought of in terms 

of the molecule that it codes for. 

When you have a mutated gene, 

you therefore have a mutated 

molecule and so a changed 

phenotype—in this case the 

cancer phenotype. 

Can you give an example of this 

type of research? 

In my lab, our research starts 

with mutations in certain key 

functions called “gatekeepers.” 

So we have both a mouse 

family and a rat family that were 

developed here at the university 

which have mutations in the 

central gatekeeper for colon 

cancer. When these animals 

develop intestinal tumors, we 

can study how other genes and 

environmental factors interact with 

the disease. What changes make 

the cancer more severe, and what 

changes make it better? 

How might such an 

understanding lead to 

treatments? 

Sometimes we’ll see that we have 

a more severe cancer when the 

mutation inactivates the molecule. 

This is called loss of function. 

Then we say, well, perhaps if 

we supply that function, we can 

make it better. This gives us a very 

concrete lead for a kind of therapy 

that could be developed. 

For instance, we’ve found there’s 

an enzyme, a phospholipase, 

that’s secreted within the colon, 

but not from the tumor, from 

neighboring healthy cells. When 

it’s active, tumors grow more 

slowly. So perhaps when this 

product is diminished, replacing it 

could prove therapeutic. 

Why is colon cancer so 

common? 

The intestinal epithelium is the 

most actively self-renewing tissue 

in a mammal. every week we 

have a new intestine, in terms 

of the cells that are present. A 

very active turnover means a lot 

of potential for error. There are a 

number of protective mechanisms 

to keep it from developing 

growths, but these mechanisms 

aren’t perfect. So colon cancer 

is among the most common 

cancers. But in terms of the 

numbers of cell divisions that go 

on, it’s quite remarkable that colon 

cancer doesn’t develop every year 

in every person. 

What might such research mean 

for early detection? 

We are identifying molecules that 

are associated with the tumors 

and accumulate in various body 

fluids, including blood serum. 

These molecules give us a highly 

sensitive way of screening for 

tumor-bearing animals versus 

normal animals. 

Right now there are not enough 

trained gastroenterologists to 

handle colonoscopies for the 

whole population over 50. Since 

people give blood samples when 

they have a physical, if there were 

a blood serum-based test, it might 

become a less invasive form of 

early detection. 

Is there anything you want to 

add about this program? 

Research across the Cancer 

Genetics program is drawn 

together by the intersection 

between classical genetics, 

comprehensive molecular analysis 

of genotype and phenotype, and 

biostatistics. Finally, at the end of 

the day, research findings must 

be tested at the human level. The 

Healthy Wisconsin initiatives of 

our School of Medicine and Public 

Health are very important in this.

As a hematologist treating 

many patients with lymphoma, 

Brad Kahl, MD, finds his field 

infinitely fulfilling. A clinical 

researcher searching for new 

and better cancer treatments, 

he can look his patients in the 

eye and tell them that he has a 

very personal commitment to 

improving their condition. 

How did you decide to become 

a hematologist-oncologist? 

My father died of chronic 

myelogenous leukemia (CMl) 

when I was 12. Obviously, that 

had a big effect on me. I went 

to medical school unsure of 

what kind of doctor I wanted to 

become. During the second year, 

we covered hematology, 

the study of blood disorders, 

and it all clicked. After that, 

there was never a doubt. 

What sets the UW Paul P. 

Carbone Comprehensive 

Cancer Center apart in 

providing cancer care? 

Without a doubt, the cutting 

edge research and treatments 

combined with compassionate, 

individualized care that we offer. 

I have seen many patients seek 

second opinions at other major 

cancer centers and they almost 

always come back, talking about 

how lucky they feel to have the 

Cancer Center in their backyard. 

Are there any groundbreaking 

initiatives on the horizon in 

hematology? 

Historically, multiple myeloma 

was the worst possible blood 

cancer diagnosis. However, in the 

past five years there have been 

several new treatments developed 

for myeloma and several more 

are in development. no single 

treatment may qualify as a true 

breakthrough, but when all of 

the new options are considered 

together, the progress in myeloma 

is truly impressive. 

Tell us more about your 

clinical research. 

I focus on developing new 

treatments for patients with 

lymphoma, which is cancer of 

the lymphatic system. There 

are approximately 40 different 

kinds of lymphomas, so I find it 

a very challenging area. Much 

of my research has centered on 

developing monoclonal antibody 

therapy, which has far fewer side 

effects than chemotherapy. 

What challenges lie ahead for 

individuals involved in your 

research? 

Our understanding of what makes 

cancer cells tick is outpacing our 

ability to apply that knowledge 

to help cancer patients. There 

are a multitude of reasons why. 

The challenge is to take what 

is learned in the laboratory and 

rapidly apply this knowledge to 

benefit our patients. 

What will the future hold for 

cancer research? 

The future lies in translating 

discoveries in molecular medicine 

into personalized cancer care. 

We are going to be able to test 

tumor cells from two patients who 

appear to have the same kind of 

cancer and see that the cancers 

are actually quite different at the 

molecular level. Then we will be 

able to select targeted agents 

tailored to each individual. The 

result will be better outcomes with 

fewer side effects. It is going to be 

exciting to see this unfold. 

Is there anything else you would 

like to share? 

When my dad was diagnosed 

with CMl, there were no effective 

treatments. A few years after his 

death, some patients were cured 

with bone marrow transplantation. 

now, virtually all patients with 

CMl can experience long-term 

remission just by taking a pill a day 

and bone marrow transplantation 

is rarely needed. now that’s 

progress. There is reason to be 

optimistic.

the interdisciplinary research complex will be a powerful tool for advancing biomedical research on the uw campus. 

24 

Medical and biological science 

is continually evolving, and the 

presence of the next generation of 

biomedical research is dramatically 

apparent on the west end of the 

University of Wisconsin campus. 

With an impressive footprint and 

a total of 663,430 square feet 

at completion, the emerging 

Interdisciplinary Research 

Complex (IRC) will be yet another 

scientific milestone at the 

university. 

The facility will be a national 

showplace, according to Paul M. 

Deluca, PhD, Vice Dean of the 

UW School of Medicine and Public 

Health and Associate Dean for 

Research and Graduate Studies, 

an innovative center designed to 

remove barriers between basic 

and clinical research. 

“Our concept was totally visionary 

at its inception more than a 

decade ago,” says Deluca, “now 

others are applying the UW’s 

original vision and creating their 

own centers.” 

The IRC’s essential purpose is 

to inspire creative new ways for 

scientists to pursue biological 

research and to apply their ideas 

directly to problems clinicians face 

everyday. This model, frequently 

described as translational 

research, is a relatively new 

approach to scientific discovery, 

and one that wouldn’t have been 

possible even 10 years earlier. 

The design of the building is 

meant to encourage integration 

and flexibility across disciplines; 

to facilitate a creative exchange 

of ideas. Currently under 

construction are a three-story 

base housing key facilities such 

as state-of-the-art animal facilities 

and innovative imaging technology 

and an eight-story laboratory 

tower including two floors for 

imaging/radiation sciences. This 

first tower, scheduled to open 

in early 2008, will be dedicated 

to cancer research, regenerative 

medicine, neurogenetics, 

molecular medicine and 

neurosciences. The completed 

complex will eventually include 

second and third research towers. 

Siting the building was essential 

to the vision. It is close to 

the University of Wisconsin 

Hospital and Clinics, the soonto-be-opened 

American Family 

Children’s Hospital, the School of 

Medicine and Public Health, the 

Waisman Center, the UW School 

of Pharmacy and the William S. 

Middleton Memorial Veterans 

Hospital. 

A growing number of major 

academic medical centers have 

been embracing the translational 

research model. One obvious 

benefit of translational research, 

according to the national Institutes 

of Health, is that basic scientists 

give clinicians new tools for patient 

care, and clinical researchers 

are uniquely able to observe the 

progress and effects of disease, 

which often stimulates ideas 

for additional basic science 

investigations. 

Taking advantage of the 

translational research approach 

means institutions are focusing 

more of their resources on 

teams of faculty researchers 

who are well trained in inter- and 

multidisciplinary investigation; 

scientists who can project the 

success of laboratory discoveries 

to patient care and who are 

excited about designing their 

explorations around finding very 

real and human solutions. 

Institutions are creating 

environments, such as the IRC, 

to provide investigators with 

the tools, the infrastructure and 

research support necessary to 

advance multidisciplinary research. 

These resources not only facilitate 

moving research breakthroughs 

to clinical care, they also help 

recruit and retain promising 

faculty. Ultimately, the discoveries 

emerging from facilities such 

as the IRC will forever change 

the way medicine is practiced, 

opening unimagined opportunities 

to improve human health and 

well being.

At the University of Wisconsin 

Paul P. Carbone Comprehensive 

Cancer Center, the goal is to 

offer excellence in care and 

service each time patients and 

family members visit, and to keep 

improving every day. 

Delivering on that promise requires 

a fervent commitment to quality 

and to the people, programs, 

technologies and partnerships 

that make it happen. To monitor 

progress, we routinely measure 

performance and compare it to 

nationally accepted standards and 

best practices. We’re proud to be 

among those setting the standards 

and creating the best practices 

that others follow.

During fiscal 2006 total support increased to $128.5 million or an increase of 3.3%. Support from 

contributions totaled just over $5.4 million or an increase of 18% during the year. Since fiscal 2003 

contributions have grown 123%. 

Total expenditures in fiscal 2006 reached $128.7 million. As in prior years, salaries and benefits represented 

the largest component of expenditures at 48% of total expenditures.

ExPEnSES BY MEMBER DEPARTMEnT 

During the year ending June 30, 2006, 

research and training-related expenditures 

were incurred in more than 40 UW schools 

and departments. The Cancer Center member 

departments cover a wide range of disciplines 

across the UW campus. The two largest 

departments as measured by expenditures 

were the Department of Medicine and the 

McArdle laboratory for Cancer Research. 

UWCCC MEMBER SUPPoRT 

As of July 1, 2006 Cancer Center member 

annual external research and training support 

totaled $140.3 million, a decline of just 

under 1%. This small decrease reflects the 

tight federal budget and the trend for longer 

intervals between funding of nIH grants and 

automatic budget decreases in funded 

nIH grants.

“we make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.” –winston churchill 

Your gift to the UW Paul P. 

Carbone Comprehensive Cancer 

Center supports greater innovative 

research initiatives, compassionate 

cancer care and education 

for the public and health care 

professionals. 

Your contribution also enables 

our researchers to explore new 

ideas, purchase new technology 

for effective cancer research, 

and develop better methods 

of diagnosing, treating and 

preventing cancer. 

Funding for the Cancer Center’s 

research, outreach and treatment 

programs is more important than 

ever. There are many ways to 

support the UW Carbone Cancer 

Center (UWCCC): 

UnRESTRICTED GIFTS are truly 

valuable because they provide 

the flexibility needed for research 

to move quickly in unexpected 

directions and to swiftly pursue 

promising clinical applications. 

Unrestricted gifts also provide 

resources to cover the costs of 

critical services not entirely funded 

by other support. 

DESIGnATED GIFTS benefit 

specific programs of your choice. 

Funds may be designated for 

initiatives in specific areas of 

cancer research, patient care and 

educational needs. 

CoRPoRATE MATCHInG GIFTS 

are an excellent way to increase 

your giving potential to the Center.

affection, admiration or gratitude. 

When such gifts are made, a 

special notification is sent to the 

family or individual. 

MAJoR GIFTS are a specific 

way for individuals, organizations, 

corporations or foundations to 

contribute to the University of 

Wisconsin School of Medicine 

and Public Health’s HealthStar 

campaign. Funds from this 

campaign will help build the 

Interdisciplinary Research 

Complex, which will prominently 

feature the UW Paul P. Carbone 


and innovative research. Please
