The featured speaker is Christina Curtis, PhD, the RZ Cao Professor of Medicine, Genetics and Biomedical Data Science at Stanford University. She will present \u201cTowards Forecasting Cancer Initiation and Progression: Genomic, Host and Microenvironmental Factors\u201d at 3 p.m. via Zoom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Haji Zoona Band was a homemaker who raised five children. \u201cNeither of my parents had any formal education at all,\u201d Dr. Band said. \u201cMy mom was completely illiterate. But both my mother and father thought education was the way forward.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Raised in India, Dr. Band left that country during peaceful times, but due to prolonged violence in the area around Kashmir, he was able to return only one time between 1986 and 2005 to visit his parents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMy parents put all five of us through school,\u201d Dr. Band said. \u201cMy brother, youngest sister and I were the first in the family to go to college.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Haji Zoona Band was about 77 when she died of cancer in 2009. \u201cIt was a cancer of unknown origin, likely stage four and most likely in an organ in her abdomen,\u201d Dr. Band said. \u201cHer illness was very sudden and progressed quickly. She was diagnosed in May, we visited her in June, and she died in July.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was a shock to Dr. Band, his wife, Vimla Band, PhD, professor and the Ardith and Anna Von Housen Chair of the UNMC Department of Genetics, Cell Biology and Anatomy, and their family to lose Hamid\u2019s mother this way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe medical care in that area was so primitive,\u201d Dr. Hamid Band said. \u201cThe suddenness of the entire process, and the fact that we could do nothing, coupled with not seeing her much in my adult life, it was a major loss. Vimla suggested doing something, and we began to talk about how to honor her memory.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Graduate students select two to four speaker nominees and then confer with the Bands. The speakers being considered are typically women in science and work in the area of cancer biology and metastatic disease or focus on women\u2019s cancer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cSupporting the next generation of graduate students who are going to find treatments and other strategies for fighting cancer was the best way to keep her memory alive,\u201d Dr. Hamid Band said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe Fred &amp; Pamela Buffett Cancer Center thanks Drs. Hamid and Vimla Band for their strong support of cancer research as demonstrated by this named lecture,\u201d said Joann Sweasy, PhD, director of the cancer center.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe Eppley Institute is extremely grateful to Hamid and Vimla for their dedication to enhancing the education of graduate students through the Haji Zoona Band Cancer Biology Lecture,\u201d said Joyce Solheim, professor and director of the cancer research doctoral program in the Eppley Institute for Research in Cancer&nbsp;and Allied Diseases and associate director for training and education at the Fred &amp; Pamela Buffett Cancer Center.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To obtain a link for viewing the lecture, <a href=\"mailto:christina.whitted@unmc.edu\">email Chris
