We are grateful for their past contributions and continued support.

The Initiative's board includes sarcoma surgeons, medical oncologists, clinicians, and researchers from eight different countries. They share a passion for helping those facing sarcoma and are dedicated to finding better treatments and a cure for sarcoma. Our board members provide invaluable service to the sarcoma community as they write and review articles for ESUN. They also help us fund the best research possible by reviewing and recommending submissions to our Research Grants Program.
