Marit Peterson Fund supports research investigating the inherited genome for melanoma. In just 4 years, this grass roots tournament has sent over $700,000 directly to the research team at M. D. Anderson. More than 2,000 samples of DNA from melanoma patients have been collected and genetic testing on one million individual genetic variations across the entire genome has been completed. Analysis of these genes and their relationship to melanoma is currently underway. The study is currently the single largest and highest-quality melanoma study of its kind in the world. The Fund is under the direction of Jeffrey E. Lee, M.D., professor of surgical oncology in the Melanoma and Skin Center at M. D. Anderson, the very doctor that saved Marit's life.

Thank you for your support!
