Prostate Cancer Research Is Group Effort
“I would like to keep our donors informed about the progress of our productive, multi-institutional research group that is recognized by our scientific peers.”
William J. Catalona, MD
Projects in scientific research are not done by one person anymore.
Often, they are a team effort involving scientists from all parts of the United States and other countries as well.
The collaborative research groups on prostate cancer coordinated by Dr. Catalona are supported by donations to the Urological Research Foundation.
The following is a list of selected recent publications from members of Dr. Catalonas collaborative research group supported in part by the URF.
