- MGH HOTLONE,
November 3, 2006 - "...Robert Martuza,
MD, FACS, chief of MGH Neurosurgery and director
of the Stephen E. and Catherine Pappas Center for
Neuro-Oncology at the MGH, recently was elected
to the prestigious Institute of Medicine (IOM),
a part of the National Academy of Sciences. The
IOM serves in an advisory role on issues of national
importance in the fields of biomedical science,
medicine and health and provides unbiased, evidence-based
information to policymakers, professionals, leaders
in society and the general public. Each year, 65
new members are elected to the IOM on the basis
of their professional achievement and commitment
to service. |
| Martuza
is a renowned leader in the field of cancer research.
His early work focused on the possibility that viruses
could be genetically engineered to selectively replicate
in cancer cells. This launched the study of oncolytic
viruses, which are now studied in laboratories and
cancer clinics around the world. Martuza's work
with genetically engineered viruses also has been
incorporated into clinical trials for malignant
brain tumor therapies. Currently, his clinical interests
focus on surgery for nervous system tumors —
particularly acoustic neuromas, meningiomas, gliomas
and the neurofibromatoses. ..." |
