===Graham Colditz===

Colditz is the Niess-Gain professor of surgery, professor of medicine and associate director of prevention and control at the Alvin J. Siteman Cancer Center at Barnes-Jewish Hospital and Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, Mo. He is also chief of the division of public health sciences, department of surgery and deputy director at the Institute for Public Health at Washington University School of Medicine.

Colditz’s research interests are lifestyle and environmental risk factors that contribute to the onset of cancer. PI on two large-scale, population studies involving subsets of individuals with a particular disease. The Nurses’ Health Study at Brigham and Women’s Hospital and the [[Growing Up Today Study]] (GUTS).

Awards AACR-DeWitt S. Goodman Memorial Lectureship, Fulbright Scholarship, Knox Fellowship at Harvard University, the American Cancer Society Faculty Research Award, the ASPO Distinguished Achievement Award, election to membership of the Institute of Health and the American Cancer Society Cissy Hornung Clinical Research Professorship. In 2011, he was awarded the American Cancer Society Medal of Honor for cancer control research.

"strong commitment to industrial users and private/public partnerships"{{sfn|Woodhouse|p=166}}. MBancroft reported 'more than 40 letters of support from industry indicating that [the CLS] is important for what they do.{{sfn|Woodhouse|p=167}} Only two private companies privided capital funding.{{sfn|Woodhouse|p=166}}. Dayday "the CLS will add $122 million to Canada's GDP during construction and $12 million annually after that".{{sfn|Woodhouse|p=163}} Kent Smith-Windsor of the Saskatooon Chamber of Commerce described the CLS as "potential cork in the brain drain"{{sfn|Woodhouse|p=163}}. Bill Thomlinson in a speech in 2007 said "one of the biggest challenges for the synchrotron...is to get private users through the door".{{sfn|Woodhouse|p=170}}. The CLS has been cited as an example of the commercialization of university research endangering "other areas of scholarship and research that is perceived to be of little immediate utility for generating private monetary wealth".{{sfn|Woodhouse|p=8}}.

A further push towards a Canadian synchrotron lightsource started in 1990 with formation of the Canadian Institute for Synchrotron Radiation (CISR), initiated by Bruce Bigham of [[AECL]]. AECL and [[TRIUMF]] showed interest in designing the ring, but the [[Saskatchewan Accelerator Laboratory]] at the [[University of Saskatchewan]] became prominent in the design phase. In 1991 CISR submitted a propoal to NSERC for a final design study. This was turned down, but in later years, under President Peter Morand, NSERC became more supportive. In 1994 NSERC committee recommended a Canadian synchrotron lightsource and a further NSERC committee was formed to select between two bids to host such a facility, from the Universities of Saskatchewan and Western Ontario. In 1996 this committee recommended that the Canadian Light Source be built in Saskatchewan. <ref name="Bancroft" /><ref name="booster">{{cite web | url=http://accelconf.web.cern.ch/accelconf/e04/PAPERS/THPKF025.PDF |title=Commissioning report of the CLS booster synchrotron | date=2004 | format=PDF | accessdate=2012-22-07}}</ref>
