Decades ago, Dr. Brian Druker found a drug to treat certain types of leukemia. Now, he heads OHSU’s Knight Cancer Institute in looking for the next breakthrough.

PORTLAND, Ore. — For the health care and research fields, cancer has long been a most implacable and deadly foe. But there are advances in the fight against it happening more and more — some of them happening here in Portland, inspired in part by the brilliance of one local doctor.

Brian Druker is a medical doctor who grew up in Minnesota. He went to medical school in California and began his research career there.
