| A Special Message from the Executive Director |
Dear Friend of the Cancer Research Institute,
 It is my great pleasure to share with you our first issue of Cancer ImmuNews, the e-newsletter of the Cancer Research Institute. In each issue, we will keep you informed of the innovative developments taking place in immunology and cancer immunology laboratories and clinics around the world and within the CRI community.
I hope you will enjoy reading about the reports of progress today and in the months to come as, together, we continue to lead the way in advancing immunology to conquer cancer.
With thanks,
Jill O'Donnell-Tormey, Ph.D.
Executive Director, Cancer Research Institute
