Published every other month, the ASCO Global Express provides commentary from ASCO’s leadership on topics of international priority, information about ASCO’s upcoming educational and scientific meetings around the world, links to selected articles in the Journal of Clinical Oncology and ASCO Connection, and overall insights into ASCO’s efforts to improve cancer care globally.

Created in response to member requests for a communications channel devoted to the concerns of the international cancer community, in part for the recognition and appreciation of international members, ASCO Global Express will also fulfill a growing need for the Society by regularly sharing educational, scientific, and quality initiatives to a steadily growing number of international members. Increasingly, international volunteers are playing an important role in ASCO, from making up over half of the attendees at the Annual Meeting in recent years to serving on the ASCO Board of Directors and numerous committees, including the vibrant International Affairs Committee.

In addition to the ASCO Global Express, international members will continue to receive the standard ASCO Express—the electronic newsletter for all ASCO members—every other week.

Questions or comments about the newsletter should be sent to international@asco.org. ■
