In today’s episode, we sat down for part 2 of our discussion with Elizabeth Mittendorf, MD, PhD, MHCM, the 2026-2027 president-elect of the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO). Dr Mittendorf holds numerous leadership roles, including the Robert and Karen Hale Distinguished Chair in Surgical Oncology and vice chair for research in the Department of Surgery at Brigham and Women's Hospital; co-leader of the Breast Program and director of the Breast Immuno-Oncology Program at the Dana-Farber Brigham Cancer Center; co-leader of the Parker Institute for Cancer Immunotherapy at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute; and a professor of surgery at Harvard Medical School, all in Boston, Massachusetts.
In this discussion, Dr Mittendorf shared how ASCO is strategically preparing to address the long-term implications of proposed federal research funding cuts. She emphasized the significant return on investment generated by sustained NIH support, underscoring its role in fostering scientific innovation and stimulating the broader economy. She also advocated for structural reforms to be developed collaboratively with researchers, institutions, and policymakers to ensure continued progress in oncology is maintained, particularly in underfunded areas, such as prevention research.
Dr Mittendorf also previewed her broader vision for ASCO, including expanding global collaboration and advancing equitable access to cancer care. She noted that these efforts will be complemented by continued emphasis on multidisciplinary care delivery and mentorship, which she discussed in more detail in part one of our conversation.
