"I will go back to the states intellectually stimulated, emotionally fulfilled, and, from the overall experience . . . slightly intoxicated. A brilliant year, a brilliant experience!"

Joe Campo of the Washington State (U.S.) Cancer Registry is the first U.S. researcher to be selected for a Consortium-endorsed fellowship on the island of Ireland. During his year on the island, he collaborated with the Northern Ireland Cancer Registry and the Irish National Cancer Registry to develop the All-Ireland Cancer Statistics Second Report 1998-2000. The second report - a follow-up report to the first All-Ireland Cancer Statistics Report 1994-96 - provides a comprehensive analysis of cancer incidence, mortality, and survival for the island of Ireland during that three-year period.
