Piazza Galimberti Cuneo. |
Officially, the Cuneo Lung Cancer Study Group (CuLCaSG) was founded in January 20, 1994, in Cuneo, an alpine town of northwest Italy. An informal lung cancer group, however, has been active at the "A. Carle" Hospital for Chest Diseases since 1982, thanks to the work of two thoracic oncologists, the doctors G. Buccheri and D. Ferrigno. The history of the group strictly coincides with that of the two founders. |
|
Dr. Gianfranco Buccheri is presently the Scientific Director of the Group. He is mainly responsible for the CuLCaSG scientific production. Dr. Buccheri is a Thoracic Oncology Consultant at the S. Croce and Carle Hospital (Cuneo). He has been a visiting clinician in both Respiratory and Oncology departments in the United States (Mayo Clinic, M.D. Anderson Hospital, Pittsburgh Cancer Institute) and United Kingdom (Bromptom Hospital and London University College). He has contributed nearly 200 original investigations at more than 68 International Meetings and has authored more than 120 original articles, reviews, editorials, and book chapters. He has served as a referee for the Cancer Journal, the Monaldi Archives of Chest Diseases, Thorax, The European Respiratory Journal, and Lung Cancer. In August 1997, he received a special recognition by ALCASE, the only organization worldwide dedicated solely to lung cancer patients. For more information visit the Dr. Buccheri 's C.V. page.
