BOARD CHAIR

Doug Brodman

Florida

I first became involved with the MRF like so many others, as a newly diagnosed patient looking for answers. The educational information, support and sense of community that I found at the MRF were invaluable to me during the most challenging time of my life. I’m honored to have the opportunity to give back to an organization that is unmatched in its commitment to melanoma patients and caregivers, while supporting the cutting-edge research advances that will lead us to a cure.
