Chapter 14: MD Anderson Publications and Publication Ethics
No full textDr. Goepfert has served on a number of editorial boards and is keenly interested in the educational dissemination of information critical to cancer research. In this section he talks about some of MD Anderson’s publications and also addresses some controversies with publication. He first raises the ethical issue of how authorship is assigned to a manuscript going out for publication. Today there are guidelines for assigning authorship, but twenty years ago, he explains, some department chairs at MD Anderson reviewed all manuscripts going for publication and insisted on being listed as first author of an article, whether they made any contribution to the research or not. Dr. Goepfert contrasts his own practice of putting his name on a paper only if he has contributed. Dr. Goepfert then shifts subjects and describes several MD Anderson educational publications, beginning with Cancer Bulletin, distributed free to all physicians across Texas.https://openworks.mdanderson.org/mchv_interviewchapters/2010/thumbnail.jp

Chapter 12: The Competing Priorities of Patient Care and Research in the Past and Future of MD Anderson, and the Unsung Hero Clinicians at MD Anderson
No full textDr. Byers gives his perspective on the priority of personal patient care in MD Anderson’s past, Dr. R. Lee Clark’s emphasis on it relative to research, the trend of its deemphasis under subsequent MD Anderson presidents, and the necessity for its reemphasis in the future. Dr. Balch and Dr. Beyers then name the unsung heroes, who “did not publish 50 or 100 papers” or participate in clinical trials, MD Anderson clinicians: Drs. Oscar M. Guillamondegui, William “Bill” MacComb, Edgar “Ed” White, Richard “Dick” G. Martin, Felix N. Rutledge and Douglas E. Johnson. Dr. Byers talks about his pursuit of the “3 Legs of the Stool” (research, publishing, and clinical work), acknowledged the role of publishing to fund MD Anderson research, but emphasized the need for “bench to bed (bedside)” direct application of research to patient care.https://openworks.mdanderson.org/surgeryhist_interviewchapters/1022/thumbnail.jp

Chapter 18: MD Anderson Presidents
No full textHere Dr. Goepfert gives his views of the leadership styles of MD Anderson’s first three presidents. He describes R. Lee Clark as a “unique leader” with a strong character and decisive leadership style. (He observes that Clark advocated thinking big, but “built small” when it came to the inpatient unit.) Dr. LeMaistre was a very gentlemanly man, a good delegator, who was able to put smoking cessation at the forefront of MD Anderson’s initiatives and also made the first connections with other institutions such as MD Anderson Orlando. Dr. Goepfert next describes the search process (including some internal political strife) that resulted in Dr. John Mendelsohn’s presidency, describing him as the most “eccentric” of all the presidents and a significant physician-scientist who conducted valuable work on epidermal growth factors and antibodies. Dr. Goepfert notes that Dr. Mendelsohn’s name was associated with an insider trading scandal and that Dr. Mendolsohn did not support him in his efforts to develop the Head and Neck physician-scientist program. He observes that Dr. Mendelsohn was able to stimulate significant philanthropy for MD Anderson. Dr. Goepfert also explains that he advised Dr. Mendelsohn to step away from MD Anderson once Dr. DePinho assumed the role of president (though he notes that Dr. Mendelsohn appears to be reestablishing his connection with the institution). Dr. Goepfert emphasizes his own philosophy and practice of stepping away once an administrative role is done: he could have continued in his department after retiring, but advocates that one should “go before they make you go” and that younger people in “the pipeline” need to have their chance.https://openworks.mdanderson.org/mchv_interviewchapters/2014/thumbnail.jp
