Josh Sommer Honored as an ABC Person of the Year

We are extremely proud of 2008 Echoing Green Fellow Josh Sommer for his work to develop effective treatments for Chordoma.  

Josh experienced his moment of obligation when in 2007 he was diagnosed with Chordoma, a rare form of brain cancer. Josh has committed himself to finding a cure for his own cancer--launching the Chordoma Foundation in 2007, and having raised $500,000 to date. On Friday, ABC News honored him as a 2008 Person of the Year. Check out this moving video about Josh's efforts: http://abcnews.go.com/video/playerIndex?id=6405230.
