===Graham Colditz===

{{under construction |placedby= |section= |notready= |comment= |category= }}

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).

==History==

===The Road to the SRC: 1953 to 1968===

In 1953 15 universities formed the Midwest Universities Research Association (MURA) to promote and design a high energy [[proton]] [[synchrotron]], to be built in the [[Midwestern United States|Midwest]]. With the intent of constructing a large accelerator, MURA purchased a suitable area of land with an underlying flat limestone base near Stoughton, Wisconsin, about 10 miles from the [[Madison, Wisconsin|Madison]] campus of the University of Wisconsin. A small electron storage ring, operating at 240 Mev, was designed as a test facility to study high currents, and construction of this ring started in 1965. However, in 1963 [[President of the United States|President]] [[Lyndon B. Johnson|Johnson]] had decided that the next large accelerator facility would not be built at the MURA site, but in [[Batavia]], [[Illinois]] - this became [[Fermilab]]. In 1967 MURA dissolved with the storage ring incomplete and with no further funding.

In 1966 a subcommittee of the National Research Council, which had been investigating the properties of [[synchrotron radiation]] from the 240 MeV ring, recommended it be completed as a tool for spectroscopy. A successful proposal was made to the [[US Air Force]] Office of Scientific Research, and the ring was completed in 1968, administered by the University of Wisconsin. <ref name="Tant">{{Cite journal
