UVM Cancer Center ambassadors are members who collectively represent all aspects of the center: research, clinical care including clinical research, and community engagement through education and outreach.
You may find our ambassadors at special events, being interviewed on TV or the radio, and out in the catchment area representing the UVM Cancer Center.
For questions about the ambassador program, please contact Kate Strotmeyer, Director of Communications and Community Outreach (Katherine.Strotmeyer@med.uvm.edu).
