Headquarters
Welcome to Headquarters for Operation: Colon Cancer
The website you are looking at is a product of students at the University of Arizona in Biology 181H Group #1 from their interpretation and explanation of a scientific paper called
"Pronounced reduction in adenoma recurrence associated with aspirin use and a polymorphism in the ornithine decarboxylase gene,"
which documents a study performed by Maria Elena Martinez and her colleagues.
Group #1's mentor was Dr. Eugene Gerner from the University of Arizona's Department of Radiation Oncology. You can read more about him under Operatives and Contacts.
The students who helped compose this website on colon cancer, its genetic risk factors, and the reduced risks of cancer associated with aspirin are
