GRACE in partnership with LUNGevity Foundation are thrilled to offer our next webinar on Wednesday, October 24th, at 6:30 PM Eastern/3:30 PM Pacific, with the renowned Dr. David Harpole, Thoracic Surgeon and Professor of Surgery at Duke University Medical Center.

He'll join us to speak about advances in lung cancer surgery over the past few years and evolving standards.
