Blog Team
Meet our dedicated team, driven by a strong commitment to sharing experiences, viewpoints, and resources, all with the goal of fostering stronger connections within the global sarcoma community through our blog, which serves as a platform for amplifying the voices of those affected by sarcoma. Amy, Gabi and Roger work as SPAGN volunteers for the blog editorial team and are sarcoma/GIST patients themselves.
