Three records from an earlier chapter of Doug Liles’s work in scientific collaboration. Selected excerpts keep the evidence accessible while omitting personal contact details, signatures, and unrelated correspondence.
AACR conference participant
November 30–December 4, 2005 · Bonita Springs, Florida
“Your active participation contributed to making this conference a success.”
Margaret Foti, AACR Chief Executive Officer · letter dated December 28, 2005
The letter confirms participation in Cancer, Proteases, and the Tumor Microenvironment. It separately invites a membership application; it does not confirm membership.
The invitation and roster identify Doug Liles of the Good Samaritan Institute. A completed acceptance and post-meeting report corroborate participation. The roster distinguishes formal TRWG members with an asterisk; Doug’s entry is unstarred.
“We are moving ahead to improve the web site with Doug Liles help.”
Frank Torti · December 14, 2006 email, forwarded to Doug by Lynn Matrisian on December 23
This acknowledgment documents website collaboration following the Asilomar retreat. It does not establish an executive-committee appointment or authorship of the consortium’s recommendations.
The personal CV also records AACR’s 2003 Oncogenomics conference in Phoenix and the 2004 ASCO annual meeting and educational symposia in New Orleans. Separate organizer confirmations for these entries were not in the reviewed archive. The Phoenix NCI roundtable date is corrected from the CV’s 2005 entry to February 2006.
