- Accelerate the development of novel investigator-initiated trials.
- Facilitate multidisciplinary collaborations in melanoma within SKCC and beyond.
- Provide a forum for the development of research initiatives via patient outreach events, research retreats, collaborative research meetings, and trainee mentorship.
- Promote external partnerships with other leading melanoma researchers worldwide.
