A powerhouse board with cancer center + industry leaders – LoRusso, Shaw, Galbraith, Caligiuri, Von der Heide, Wolchok, Jaffee, Pao, Newman, Stegmaier, Platz, Sharp, Foti, Curtis – partnering to serve the cancer community. I am inspired by their knowledge + dedication and grateful for the opportunity to learn from them.
Many thanks to Margaret Foti and the fantastic AACR staff for hosting at AACR headquarters this week.
