THE HEROES AMONG US

THE HEROES AMONG US The Arkansas Cancer Research Center is proud to support Lance Armstrong in his quest for an unprecedented seventh Tour de France victory. Regardless of the outcome of this year's race, Lance has already won the respect and admiration of millions of cancer survivors around the world who see him as more than a championship athlete, they see him as one of them. The ACRC is looking for stories of heroes, people who have taken on cancer and beaten it. If you or someone you know has a story about their encounters with cancer and would like to share it with others, please send it to us (see flip side). Some of those stories will be published. Write today. Just because you've never worn a yellow jersey doesn't mean you aren't a hero.

Maternal-fetal medicine is a subspecialty of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology in the UAMS College of Medicine. Because UAMS is the state’s only comprehensive academic health center, moms-to-be are surrounded by some of the best clinicians, researchers and technicians in Arkansas. The clinical program also collaborates with Arkansas Children’s Hospital, an affiliate hospital where the UAMS Department of Pediatrics faculty is housed and is on staff. The program deals with higher risk of complications, due to the mother’s age, medical conditions or history. The MFM team works closely with genetic counselors in the Arkansas Genetics Program to screen for genetic disorders or hereditary risks, such as spina bifida or Down’s syndrome.
