Overview

Dr. Harry F. Bisel (1918 - 1994) was a pioneering American oncologist working in the field of medical oncology.

Dr. Harry Bisel, along with Doctors Fred Ansfield, Herman Freckman, Arnoldus Goudsmit, Robert Talley, William Wilson, and Jane Wright, was one of the founding members of the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO). This group of pioneering doctors, through the formation of ASCO, is largely credited with the development of modern American medical or clinical oncology. In 1964, Bisel was elected the first president of ASCO. He was active in the American Cancer Society and a consultant to the National Cancer Institute. Bisel was a founding member of American Society of Preventative Oncology as well as the American Association for Cancer Education.

Dr. Bisel did graduate work at the University of Pennsylvania and Harvard Medical School. He was one of the first trainees to graduate from Memorial Sloan-Kettering Medical Neoplasia program. In 1971, Dr. Bisel received the prestigious Hench Award from the School of Medicine at the University of Pittsburgh.

He was in the United States Naval Reserve from 1942 to 1978, and on active duty from 1943 to 1947. During WW 2, he was flight surgeon and was awarded three battle stars for action in the Pacific.

Dr. Bisel was the first formally trained oncologist hired by the Mayo Clinic. He was on staff from 1963 until he retired in 1983.
