Tyler J. Curiel, M.D., chief of
Hematology & Medical Oncology at
Tulane Medical School, will attempt to break the world record distance for dribbling a basketball in 24 hours (which currently stands at 97.37 miles) to raise money for research in the area of sinonasal undifferentiated carcinoma (SNUC). A current third year Tulane medical student, Andrew Martin, is hoping to develop a cure for this rare cancer, which he himself has been battling for several years. There is currently no accepted treatment for this unusual cancer.
For further details, see:

Update: Dr. Curiel has broken the world record!
All gifts, pledges, and event sponsorships for this event, Bounce for Life, are tax-deductible and will be used to study SNUC in ways that it has not been studied before.
