Stacey Tinianov, Executive Director at Advocates for Collaborative Education, shared Anne Marie Mercurio’s, Patient Insights Board/Patient Innovator at Medidata Solutions, post on LinkedIn, adding:

The Southwest Oncology Group (SWOG) is recruiting a patient advocate from the melanoma community to participate in the SWOG Cancer Research Network. SWOG is a member of the National Clinical Trials Network and one four adult cancer groups. In its time, SWOG has

  • Led to the approval of 14 new cancer drugs
  • Changed the standards of cancer care more than 100 times, and
  • Saved more than 3 million years of human life

Also, you get to work with really awesome people including Roberta A Albany, Barbara Segarra-Vazquez, Jacob Singleton, Laura Esfeller, Allison Rosen, Anne Marie Mercurio, and others!”

Quoting Anne Marie Mercurio’s post:

“We are recruiting a melanoma patient advocate at SWOG Cancer Research Network. There are many paths that fall under the patient advocacy umbrella and this role is focused on cancer research. SWOG advocates are involved from the earliest stages of an idea (well before protocols are written!) to ensure its clinical trials are as patient centric as possible without sacrificing scientific rigor.

Please take a moment to share in your networks. The deadline for applications is April 9. Barbara Segarra-Vazquez and I look forward to hearing from you! More information.”
