Thanks for passing this along Zavie.

It is a nice article....once you get past the photo that refers to him as

Dr. " Brain " Druker and calls the drug Gleevac.....but we are glad he is a

'brain!'

It does show him in his somewhat cluttered (but tidy) little lab space. A

lot of building is going on now at OHSU...I am glad he will get a large new

area for cancer research. I was told he has about 18-20 post-doctoral and

MD researchers in the Druker Lab. Most visits I take a large container of

home-made cookies for his lab....I call it 'cookies for a cure!' I like to

cook but don't want them around the house...and he says they disappear in a

day.

Take care everyone,

C.
