Site Features:
Today, we have uploaded a video interview with Dr Douglas Evans and his patient, Janice Castle. This interview was broadcast live on the program "Weeknight Edition" on KUHT, Houston's PBS affiliate as part of Pancreatic Cancer Awareness Month. The clip will reside permanently on the FAQ section of this site. Our thanks to the producers of "Weeknight Edition" for their permission to show this video. Click here for technical info and to view the video.
We at the Pancreatic Tumor Study Group would like to extend our thanks to Medinex, HONcode, RSACi and HealthLinks for granting us the Internet awards shown in the purple margin on the main page. We are also very grateful to those who have been nominating this site for awards. We are pleased that this site has been found so useful to our visitors!
Houston-area FYI:
If you are planning to visit M D Anderson or the Houston area between February 10 and March 5, be extra-careful to double check your hotel reservations. The Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo will be staged at the Astrodome between those dates. This Rodeo is a world-class sporting event drawing competitors and fans from several countries: hotel rooms in Harris county and all surrounding counties will be very difficult to come by. Make your reservations as soon as possible and verify them completely if you plan to visit during this time.
