Congratulations to HOPE’s CAB member, Luis Gutierrez-Mock, for being presented with the UCSF Chancellor’s Award for LGBTQ Leadership!

“Diversity, equity, and inclusion are inextricably linked to UCSF’s mission of education, research and patient care, and UCSF faculty, staff, students, and trainees are actively engaged in equity and inclusion in multiple local, regional and global settings. Each year this award recognizes and honors three individuals at UCSF—one faculty, one staff, one student/resident/postdoctoral scholar—who have demonstrated outstanding commitment and service to the ideals of diversity, equity, and inclusion beyond the scope of their job, area of research, or training. This year those whose contributions are aligned with our Anti-racism Initiative are encouraged to be nominated.”

For discovering that tumor hypoxia causes genetic instability and that IDH1 mutations suppress DNA repair in cancers, conferring vulnerability to radiation and PARP inhibitors. He developed novel DNA repair inhibitors for cancer therapy and triplex-forming oligonucleotides for gene editing. His work led to multiple new clinical trials for cancer.”

In collaboration with HOPE, Dr. Glazer works with triplex-forming oligonucleotides targeting the latent HIV provirus.
