Bio:

Dr. Salmon led the UA Cancer Center from its founding in 1976 until 1998, just before his death from pancreatic cancer. He steered cancer research at the UA from 1972, including overseeing a planning grant from the National Cancer Institute (NCI), the formation of the Southwest Oncology Group that allowed the UA to participate in larger clinical trials, and two program project grants from NCI, all of which led to the Cancer Center’s first federal support grant in 1978.

Dr. Salmon’s areas of research interest were in multiple myeloma, breast cancer and tissue culture studies of human cancers. Under Dr. Salmon's leadership, the center grew rapidly and became a major resource for the treatment of cancer in the Southwest. The center's first building, the Leon F. Levy Building, was dedicated in 1986 providing clinical, administrative and research facilities.
