Dr. Lynne Penberthy is the Associate Director for the Surveillance Research Program (SRP), which is within the Division of Cancer Control and Population Sciences (DCCPS) at the National Cancer Institute (NCI) since 2013. Dr. Penberthy obtained her MD from the University of Michigan and her MPH in epidemiology at Johns Hopkins.
Dr. Penberthy’s career includes a surgical internship in Baltimore, Maryland, at the Sinai Hospital and a preventive medicine residency at Johns Hopkins University. After her residency, she completed her post-doctoral training in epidemiology with the CDC as an epidemic intelligence service (EIS) officer with the Commonwealth of Virginia. She is licensed to practice medicine in the state of Maryland. Dr. Penberthy has a long history of focus on informatics and automation and has been involved in biobanking both in her academic role as well as at NCI.
In addition to her role as SEER program director, she is the lead for the National Childhood Cancer Registry (NCCR) development and implementation under the Childhood Cancer Data Initiative (CCDI). The latter is a population based system based on cancer registries but brings in a multitude of other data sources to support research on childhood cancer.

Physician-scientist originally from Heidelberg, Germany, Gudrun Schleiermacher is a pediatric oncologist and researcher at Institut Curie, Paris, France.
In addition to care for children and adolescents with cancer, she is involved in clinical and translational research programs. Her work focusses the study of molecular mechanisms involved in cancer progression and clonal evolution in neuroblastoma and other pediatric cancers, based on biomarker studies using liquid biopsies and on single cell analysis. Future aims are to integrate biomarkers into integrative treatment approaches, while working towards a better understanding of the underlying genetic and epigenetic modifications involved in the oncogenesis and tumor progression. She is also involved in personal and precision medicine approaches at a national and international level.
