“These individuals are tomorrow’s driving force in innovation,” added Brian Tyburski, President and CEO, The Lynx Group™. “Their achievements are crucial, well deserved, and should be applauded by all. We’re proud to partner with McGivney Global Advisors, Upstream Partners, and Swim Across America in honoring these 40 individuals for their outstanding achievements and contributions within their respective roles in the cancer continuum.”

Upon receiving the award, Dr. Mansour stated, “I am honored to be included in this esteemed group of people.  Although awards are sometimes presented individually, these accomplishments are rarely, if ever, done alone.  My career thus far has been greatly impacted by several mentors and supporters along the way, in a multitude of different facets of my life.  I would not have received this award without them.  We all as a team, along with countless institutions and organizations around the world, are working as hard as possible to continue to have an impact and improve upon how we treat and care for our patients.”
