A Fond Farewell
There's a rush of activity in the air at AMC, not only due to the festive holiday season, but due in a large part to the last of the AMC Research and Prevention staff moving to their new facility at the Anschutz Medical Campus. After 105 years, AMC will be vacating the campus built from a donated dairy farm, into a national treasure, where people from around the country could come to be treated for free. Truly, it is the end of an era. But, as one door closes, another opens.
In a final farewell to this beautiful campus, a few of the AMC staff toured the historic synagogue (built in the early 1900's) on campus. Thanks to Denise Jakan and Darla Shaffer, we have a beautiful Smilebox to share. So many years, so many happenings, so many memories. Peace to you all!

Holiday Gift Ideas
There are only 4 more shopping days left until Christmas, and no, it's not too late to get someone a Chanukah gift. The chances, though, of you ordering on-line and getting it delivered on time are slim and parking at the mall, is well, grim.
Be innovative this year and really give the gift that keeps on giving - a donation to AMC Cancer Fund supports ongoing cancer reserach, treatment, education and outreach at the University of Colorado Cancer Center.
Give today and AMC Cancer fund will take care of the rest - so there's no gift-wrapping, no card necessary, only you creating hope through science!

The Best Holiday Present for AMC
We are pleased to announce the appointment of Dan Theodorescu, MD, PhD, as the next director of the University of Colorado Cancer Center. We couldn't have asked for better news this holiday season!
Dr. Theodorescu is a urological surgeon, currently Director of the Mellon Prostate Cancer Institute at the University of Virginia in Charlottesville. Originally from Romania, Dr. Theodorescu received his PhD in molecular and cell biology from the University of Toronto under the mentorship of internationally renowned cancer biologist Dr. Robert Kerbel. He then trained as a urologic oncologist at Memorial-Sloan Kettering Cancer Center before joining the faculty at the University of Virginia, where he has built an impressive translational oncology program.
Dr. Theodorescu is a highly accomplished researcher having received several awards, including the American Association for Cancer Research Sydney Kimmel Award, the Society for Basic Urologic Research Young Investigator Award and the New York Academy of Medicine's Edwin Beer Award.
Dan will assume the position of director on July 1, 2010. Right now, he's scheduled to be at the University of Colorado Cancer Center Scientific Retreat on March 19, 2010 (details to come). We know he and his family will love Colorado. We look forward to Dan's friendship and leadership in the years to come.
