At 102, Stanley M. Gartler has died in Seattle, leaving behind a legacy that quietly reshaped how humanity understands one of its oldest adversaries. Working in the early 1960s at the University of Washington, he transformed a sixty-year-old hypothesis into proven fact: that cancer, for all its terrifying complexity, begins with a single cell losing its way. His method was as elegant as his conclusion was consequential, and the science he built endures long after his name has faded from common recognition.
