The American Society for Radiation Oncology (ASTRO) has selected 23 distinguished members to receive the ASTRO Fellow designation. The 2017 class of Fellows was recognized during the Awards Ceremony at ASTRO’s 59th Annual Meeting, which was held September 24–27 in San Diego.
The Fellows Program, started in 2006, honors those who have been active, emeritus, or international members of ASTRO for at least 15 years; have given the equivalent of 10 years of service to -ASTRO; and have made significant contributions to the field of radiation oncology in the areas of research, education, patient care or service, and leadership.
Candidates must be nominated by a current ASTRO Fellow, accompanied by three letters of support from a selected subset of ASTRO members. A committee reviews all nominations and presents a slate to ASTRO’s Board of Directors for approval.
