While summer has many people thinking about their vacation plans, Dr. Montaser Shaheen’s mind is on melanoma. The University of New Mexico oncologist and colleagues from around the country recently published a paper in the New England Journal of Medicine about a promising new treatment for the dangerous skin cancer. Shaheen ran the UNM Cancer Center’s portion of the clinical trial from which the paper’s data was collected. He hopes to be able to offer the melanoma treatment to more people.
