Three physician-researchers have been named to leadership positions at ASCO – Dana-Farber Cancer Institute

Dana-Farber Cancer Institute shared a post on LinkedIn:

“Three physician-researchers have been named to leadership positions at the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO).

Toni Choueiri, director of the Lank Centre for Genitourinary Oncology and medical director of international strategic initiatives, and Abby Rosenberg, chief of Paediatric Palliative Care, have been elected to four-year terms on the ASCO Board of Directors.

The Board, which includes cancer physicians and clinical researchers from a range of specialties, leads and sets policies for ASCO, the leading organization for physicians and other professionals caring for people with cancer.

Kimmie Ng, associate chief of Gastrointestinal Oncology, was elected to a three-year term on the ASCO Nominating Committee, which develops slates of candidates for elected ASCO positions. ‘It is an incredible honor to be elected for a seat on the Nominating Committee,’ remarks Ng.

‘ASCO has played a huge role in my academic career and success, and I am looking forward to giving back by helping select future leaders who will continue to promote the important mission and goals of ASCO.’

The terms on the Board and Nominating Committee begin this month.”
