      Join the Melanoma Research Foundation and melanoma patient/Philadelphia Inquirer blogger, T.J. Sharpe, on March 13 at 1:30pm ET for a Twitter chat on clinical trials and the patient experience. T.J. was "Patient #1" in a clinical trial to treat his Stage IV melanoma and will share his personal experience during the chat.

      The MRF chat will also cover why clinical trials are important to the research and treatment process, how to talk to your doctor about participating in one and how to find the right clinical trial for you. Find the MRF on Twitter at @CureMelanoma, T.J. on Twitter at @TeamTJSharpe and on March 13, follow #MRFChat.
