In this issue of Mayo Magazine, we feature two of our campaign initiatives: CANCER and INDIVIDUALIZED MEDICINE.
This special section on cancer and individualized medicine is the first in a series of special sections highlighting Mayo's advancements in practice, research and education. Through the completion of The Campaign for Mayo Clinic in December of 2009, each issue of Mayo Magazine will contain the stories that highlight our campaign initiatives.
