Thomas J. Bardos left the rubble of his home country, Hungary, after WWII to start again in the United States. After earning a Ph.D in chemistry from the University of Notre Dame, Bardos made his home at the State University of New York at Buffalo where he earned a professorship lasting 33 years until 1993. For his dedication to the future of cancer research, the American Association for Cancer Research has awarded 19 undergraduates from all over the country with the AACR-Thomas J. Bardos Science Education Award for the past two years. This year, one winner is Cornell’s own Erin M. Dauchy ’08.
