My Newest Endeavor!
Anne Marie Mercurio
Patient Research Partner, Freelance Consultant, Writer, Speaker
I'm thrilled to share that I have been appointed co-chair of the Patient Advocate Committee at SWOG Cancer Research Network. My partner in crime for this endeavor is Barbara Segarra-Vazquez . This is a full-circle moment because my very first science focused meeting was in December of 2012 when Barbara and I were selected to participate as scholars in the Alamo Breast Cancer Foundation program at the annual San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium .
We are very much looking forward to building on the exceptionally strong foundation we will take over from Rick Bangs and Hildy Dillon. They have assembled an incredibly talented group of 26 advocates who serve on the committee. This appointment is an honor in every sense of the word and I know we are eager to continue to strengthen the voice of the patient bring their perspective into the #clinicaltrials being done at SWOG.
