Brief Summary: Study Design: This is a single institution pilot study to recruit 4 patients with operable pancreatic cancer scheduled for a pancreatectomy and 4 age/sex matched normal controls.

In addition, normal pancreatic tissue and normal small bowel tissue will be collected by Tissue Procurement from resected (waste) tissue at the time of pancreatectomy on the 4 pancreatic cancer patients.
