Dr. George Moore, who discovered radioactive
isotopes to diagnose cancer, died in Conifer, Colo., on May 19. He was 88. Dr.
Moore was a well-known medical researcher, having headed - and greatly expanded
- the Roswell Park Cancer Institute in Buffalo, N.Y., before moving to Denver
in 1973. Dr. Moore's work to expand cancer programs and the physical plant at
Roswell Park helped make it "a world-renowned cancer center and a leader
in cancer research and patient care," said Donald E. Trump, president and
chief executive of Roswell Park. In a prepared statement, Trump praised Dr.
Moore for the development of a tissue culture medium "that has had an
enormous impact" on research worldwide; his creation of numerous new
teaching programs; and heading fund-raising efforts for new facilities, including
a $7.2 million hospital. When Dr. Moore arrived at Roswell Park, there were
just two aging buildings, said his daughter Laurie of Davis, Calif. When he
left, the institute covered seven city blocks and had another property where
Moore did tobacco research, she said. Dr. Moore testified before US Senate
committees on the dangers of tobacco, said his son Don of Conifer. He was
professor of surgery and microbiology at the University of Colorado School of
Medicine and chief of the oncology section at Denver Health (then Denver
General Hospital). Dr. Moore's interests were broad. Mixing science with the
artistic, he created a 7-foot-tall metal sculpture of the cross-section of a
cell that stands in his front yard. He studied the geology of Colorado and was
a past president of the Colorado Mineral Society, his daughter said. He wrote
two books and more than 700 articles for medical journals.
