This meaningful collaboration began upon the arrival of Hall-of-Fame basketball coach Lute Olson at the U of A in 1983 and has helped raise nearly $2 million for the University of Arizona Arthritis Center, paving the way to advanced diagnostics, treatments and preventive measures for rheumatic and musculoskeletal diseases.
