News to me: An editor's request
I'm Frank DeSanto, new communications and public relations manager for the Southwest Oncology Group, and editor of SWOG Update.
Please send me your SWOG news items, both those specifically for Group audiences and those for the wider world. If you have a trial you would like to see featured, let me know.
And if you’ve regularly got news to convey to your professional colleagues within SWOG – to other CRAs or nurses, for example – let me help get the word out.
In addition to spreading word of SWOG accomplishments to the public and Group news to the SWOG community, I’ll be working on initiatives to enhance patient accrual and to make our Patient Advocates program as valuable and effective as possible.
My matchbook bio: I’ve been based at the University of Michigan for the last 18 years, first as a graduate student, then as a lecturer, contractor, and most recently, staff member. Prior to that time I spent half a dozen years working in educational publishing in New York.
You can contact me at (734) 998-0114 or at fdesanto@umich.edu.
