The White House on Friday appointed an executive director of its Cancer Moonshot Task Force: Gregory C. Simon, a leukemia survivor with experience in government, nonprofits, and the corporate world.
About three weeks after President Obama announced a massive "moonshot" effort to spur progress toward cancer cures, Vice President Joe Biden convened an intergovernmental task force to coordinate the public aspects of the program. (Encouraging nonprofit and for-profit parties is also part of the mission.)
