Madison, Wisconsin - Dr. Paul Lambert, professor of oncology at the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health, is one of 10 UW-Madison faculty members being honored for their research with Kellett Mid-Career Awards.
Lambert studies papillomaviruses that cause human cancer and recently identified a novel approach for treating and preventing these cancers. He is an editor of the journal Virology and director of the Cancer Biology graduate program. He also helped create a UW-Madison class on science ethics.
