Bonnie Addario

Bonnie J. Addario is a lung cancer survivor and cofounder and board chair of GO2 Foundation for Lung Cancer. As an activist, advocate and educator, Addario has empowered patients and given them a voice since she received a stage 3B lung cancer diagnosis more than a decade ago.

In 2019, ALCF and the Lung Cancer Alliance merged, forming the GO2 Foundation for Lung Cancer, dedicated to saving, extending, and improving the lives of those vulnerable, at risk, and diagnosed with lung cancer. Addario acts as an adviser to industry leaders, clinicians and policy makers, and she is a member of the Personalized Medicine Coalition board.
