Contributions to Cancer Research

This is a summary of the research work that I had done in the last 42 years as a cancer researcher. This work is divided into three majors sections: Research on Immunoproliferative Small Intestinal Disease (IPSID). Research on lymphomas other than IPSID. Research on new agents and new treatments. I believe the most important research I had done is my research on IPSID. In addition to the fact that research on IPSID had a major impact on how we treat cancer and how we conduct research on cancer now. IPSID is a disease of the Middle East and the Mediterranean shores, and when I initially started my research on this disease, I was a professor at the American University of Beirut and my initial work in the Middle East set the stage for the explosive knowledge that followed from that research. Although several researchers in the Middle East and Europe had published on IPSID but I certainly believe...

Contributions to Teaching and Education

Thu, 19 Aug 2010 02:11:00 GMT

After he finished his training in the United States, Dr. Salem returned to the American University of Beirut in 1971 and established the first fellowship training program for cancer research and treatment in the Middle East. Between 1972 and 1986, he trained approximately 23 physicians, most of whom eventually came to M.D. Anderson Cancer Center for further training, some of whom are currently on staff at this institution.

In the early 1970's, when the treatment of cancer was still a heresy, Dr. Salem worked hard to introduce a new concept that cancer is not only a treatable disease, but also, a potentially curable one. Now, 35 years later, this concept has become common knowledge.

Dr. Salem was one of the first researchers to recognize that cancer may start as a benign process, and is totally reversible, if diagnosed and treated at this stage. This daring concept led to the growth and proliferation of a new discipline in cancer research called Chemoprevention. Also, Dr. Salem was one of the first scientists to see the link between infection and cancer. He was first to show that infections can cause cancer. This concept won the Nobel Prize in Medicine in November 2005.

Dr. Salem has conducted more than 300 conferences on cancer therapy in the Middle East, Europe, and the United States. He has chaired more than fifty sessions on cancer research and lymphomas in international and national cancer conferences. In 1993, he was invited by the International Union Against Cancer (UICC) to chair the international faculty of the UICC post-graduate chemotherapy course.

During his professional career, Dr. Salem has been actively engaged in the teaching of students, residents and fellows. Currently, he moderates cancer conferences at St. Luke's Episcopal Hospital and for many years, he chaired the monthly, multidisciplinary cancer conference, which was open to physicians in Houston city-wide.

Philosophy and What Makes Us Different

Sat, 26 Sep 2009 00:21:02 GMT

We do not simply treat diseases, we treat people who have diseases. Up-to-date medical knowledge and science are the cornerstones for quality management of the patient, but we believe that cancer treatment must be delivered with compassion and care. Each patient is given individual care tailor-made for that person. Commitment to Excellence: Excellence is achieved by making sure that every patient receives the very best possible treatment. Treatment plans are only designed after an in-depth evaluation of the diagnosis and the anatomic extent of disease. At that point, group consultations are obtained to make sure that the proposed treatment plan is the most effective one available. Our number one priority is the patient, not research. Patients are enrolled in research programs only when we are strongly convinced that the research program is the best treatment option for the patient. Dr. Salem abides by very rigorous standards. He begins by confirming pathology to make a definitive...
