Dr. Clara Montagut joins the faculty of the European Society of Medical Oncology (ESMO)

The head of the Digestive Oncology section in the Medical Oncology Service at Hospital del Mar is taking on this new role in the ESMO Faculty until 2025. From now on, she will be part of the group of experts who collaborate with the organisation to fulfil its educational responsibilities.

Dr. Clara Montagut is now a member of the ESMO Faculty, the teaching body of the European Society of Medical Oncology, specifically in the gastrointestinal, colon and rectal tumours group. The head of Digestive Oncology at Hospital del Mar and the clinical and translational research group laboratory for new therapies and biomarkers in colon and rectal cancer at the Hospital del Mar Medical Research Institute (IMIM), will form part of the group of experts from the organisation who offer advice and support to help the society fulfil its educational responsibilities.

This appointment will allow Dr. Montagut "to contribute to the growth of ESMO, a commitment that I accept on behalf of Hospital del Mar, with the intention of contributing as much as I can to its educational and scientific initiatives." The different groups that make up the ESMO Faculty are invited to propose and develop new projects.  In addition, a mentorship programme will be set up, to help nurture a new generation of leaders in the field of oncology.

ESMO Faculty members, like Dr. Montagut, are involved in developing the organisation's educational programme, reviewing clinical practice guidelines in their area of expertise, and acting as spokespersons for the society. They are also expected to participate in the different activities organised, online training projects, and the various research projects headed up by ESMO.
