Miles For Jim

As part of this year’s Appreci-a-thon, CISCRP would like to pay special tribute to Jim Adelson, who passed away unexpectedly in 2023.

Jim was one of our most enthusiastic Appreci-a-thon participants as a member of team Illumina Interactive Learning. Every year, beginning on Day One, Jim would be at the head of the pack — or very close behind — and he would complete each event at the top of the leaderboard. He got into the spirit of the event by sending notes of encouragement to other participants, suggesting ways that others could maximize their daily mileage accruals, and calling out his appreciation for clinical trials and the patients who volunteer for them.

Our deepest condolences to Jim and his family. We will miss his remarkable energy, commitment and enthusiasm and we honor him in this year’s Appreci-a-thon.
