“The death of Cullen Taniguchi is a huge, sudden loss to the field of oncology (and to pancreatic cancer research in particular). May we remember him partly through all the lives he lengthened and improved as a physician-scientist. My condolences to MD Anderson Cancer Center colleagues and family.”
Quoting the post by David Kirsch, Head of the Radiation Oncology Program at Princess Margaret Cancer Centre:
“Heartbroken to hear the devastating news that Cullen Taniguchi died suddenly. A brilliant physician-scientist in radiation oncology, who made impactful discoveries, was an inspiring mentor and elevated everyone around him. My condolences to his family and his friends and colleagues.”
