ASCO Tribute
Recognizing the importance of the doctor-patient relationship in quality cancer care, NCCS established a tribute event in 2000 to recognize the outgoing president of the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO). This annual tribute event is a wonderful opportunity for attendees of ASCO’s annual meeting, ASCO leadership, ASCO past-presidents, and others to pay tribute in good humor to the accomplishments and dedication of the ASCO outgoing president.
