The AACR-Pezcoller International Award for Cancer Research isgiven annually to a scientist who has made a major scientificdiscovery in the field of cancer, who continues to be active in thefield, and whose ongoing work holds promise for future contributions to cancer research. The Pezcoller Foundation wasestablished in 1982 by Professor Alessio Pezcoller, a dedicatedItalian surgeon who has made important contributions tomedicine during his career and who, through his foresight, vision,and generous gift in support of the formation of the Foundation,stimulated others to make significant advances in cancerresearch. Over the past decade the Pezcoller Foundation hasgiven a major award for outstanding contributions to cancer andcancer-related biomedicai science.
The American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) wasfounded in 1907 by eleven physicians and scientists dedicated tothe conquest of cancer and now has nearly 14,000 members inmore than 60 countries who are experts in basic, clinical, andtranslational cancer research. The mission of the AACR is tofoster cancer research; this is accomplished in part through outstanding scientific publications, meetings, and training andeducational programs. Because of the commitment of theFoundation and the AACR to scientific excellence in cancerresearch, these two organizations are collaborating annually onthe presentation of the AACR-Pezcoller Award. This jointlysponsored award will strengthen international collaborations andwill be a catalyst for advancements in cancer researchinternationally. The awardee will be selected by an internationalcommittee of AACR members appointed by the AACR Presidentalong with the agreement of the Council of the PezcollerFoundation. While normally the Award will be presented to asingle investigator, in exceptional cases two individuals may beselected to share the award when their investigations haveresulted in related prizeworthy work. The committee will makeits selection solely on the basis of the awardee's scientific
accomplishments without regard to race, gender, nationality, orreligious or political views. The candidate will give an awardlecture during the AACR Annual Meeting in Philadelphia, USA(April 10-14, 1999) and will receive the award in an officialceremony at the Foundation's headquarters in Trento, Italy, after
