For stroke patients, time = brain.

When David Kropp suffered his second stroke, he was alone on a rural road with no cellphone and precious little time. Fortunately, his neighbor found him and called 911. The UF Health Mobile Stroke Treatment Unit arrived in minutes, bringing lifesaving treatment directly to him.

The MSTU had saved David’s life once before, when he had his first stroke in April 2024. This time, it saved him again, and the crew's fast intervention helped him make a full recovery.

I’m incredibly proud of the people behind this extraordinary program and the difference they are making for patients across Florida.

Congratulations to my talented colleague and friend Dr. Duane Mitchell on his selection as director for the UF Health Cancer Institute. Dr. Mitchell is an exceptional leader and researcher, and I know he will guide the institute to new heights in discovery, patient care and education.

The University of Florida has selected Duane A. Mitchell, M.D., Ph.D., as the next director of the UF Health Cancer Institute, a national leader in cancer research and treatment.

Mitchell, the Phyllis Kottler Friedman Professor in the Department of Neurosurgery, assumes the role Sept. 21 at a pivotal moment for the institute, which earned National Cancer Institute designation in 2023 and has experienced significant growth in recent years, with over $57 million in total cancer grants.

“Dr. Mitchell is an exceptional scientific leader whose career reflects the very best of the University of Florida’s commitment to discovery, innovation and patient impact,” said David Norton, UF’s vice president for research. “His ability to bring together researchers, clinicians and partners across disciplines has helped transform cancer research at UF. He is uniquely positioned to lead the UF Health Cancer Institute as it builds on its recent successes and pursues even greater national prominence.”

An M.D.-Ph.D.-trained physician-scientist, Mitchell has built an international reputation for pioneering immunotherapy approaches that harness the body’s immune system to combat cancer, particularly malignant brain tumors such as glioblastoma. His work has advanced novel cancer vaccines and other immunotherapies from laboratory discovery to human clinical trials, earning national recognition and offering new hope for patients facing some of the most aggressive forms of cancer.
