个人简介
Under Dr. Alberts’ leadership as Principal Investigator, his extensive research portfolio in The University of Arizona Cancer Center, since 1990, exceeds more than $168 million in National Cancer Institute funding, including three large interdisciplinary programs (i.e. Chemoprevention of Skin Cancer Program Project, Colon Cancer Prevention Program Project, Partnership for Native American Cancer Prevention and a post-doctoral R25 Cancer Prevention and Control training program).
Clinically, Dr. Alberts pioneered new treatments for advanced ovarian cancers, including in vitro tumor cell chemosensitivity testing for personalized medicine strategies, intraperitoneal chemotherapy, maintenance chemotherapy, and most recently, a dietary and physical activity intervention (i.e. the LIvES trial) to prevent disease recurrence.
Presently, Dr. Alberts helps to coordinate Phase I and II and pharmacokinetic drug studies at The University of Arizona Cancer Center for molecularly-targeted chemopreventive agents. His laboratory research is concentrated on the evaluation of new surrogate endpoint biomarkers for cancer prevention trials with a special focus on precursor lesions for bladder, breast, colon, cervical, endometrial, ovarian, prostate, and skin cancers, using quantitative histopathology (i.e. karyometric) approaches. His NCI funded drug and diagnostics research has resulted in 18 patents and the co-founding of four Arizona pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies.
Dr. Alberts has authored or co-authored over 540 peer reviewed publications, more than 100 book chapters and 60 invited articles, and has served as Editor and Co-Editor of nine books (e.g. Fundamentals of Cancer Prevention, Third Edition, Springer Verlag, 2014 and Intraperitoneal Therapy for Ovarian Cancer, Springer Verlag, 2010). He has served on the editorial boards of several peer-reviewed scientific journals including Associate Editor for Cancer Research from 1989-2002. Between 2002 and 2008, he acted as the Co-Editor-in-Chief of Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention, a leading cancer public health research journal worldwide. Most recently, in 2014, he was honored again by the AACR with its Pioneer in Cancer Prevention Award.
Dr. Alberts is currently Regents Professor of Medicine, Pharmacology, Nutritional Science, Public Health and BIO5 at The University of Arizona College of Medicine, and Director Emeritus of the Arizona Cancer Center. During his career, Dr. Alberts has served as an advisor to numerous cancer research foundations and committees, such as Chair of the Oncologic Drug Advisory Committee to the FDA (1984-1986), and was a member of the NCI’s Board of Counselors (to the Division of Cancer Prevention, 1990-1994), the Board of Scientific Advisors (1999-2006), and on the coordinating subcommittee to the Clinical Translational Advisory Committee, NCI (2006-2009).
In June 2001, he was acknowledged by Science to be one of the top three National Institutes of Health-funded clinical researchers in the United States. In 2003, the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) recognized his contributions to clinical care in the field of cancer with the Joseph H. Burchenal Clinical Research Award, and in 2004, the American Society for Preventive Oncology gave him its Distinguished Career Award for research excellence. Also in 2004, the AACR awarded Dr. Alberts with its AACR-Cancer Research and Prevention Foundation Award for Excellence in Cancer Prevention Research Worldwide.
