Society of Clinical Oncology
Description
Bartlet hurls the Society of Clinical Oncology into the fray like a precision strike, commanding its clinical titans to anchor Sam's audacious pledge doubling as a federal death-blow to cancer within ten years. Their experts surge as the vanguard against logistical infernos—rallied in weeks alongside Sloane-Kettering and NCI—but crumble under time's vise as Oval pragmatism buries the dream. This bastion of oncology prowess fuels messianic health ambitions, clashing idealism against budgetary barbed wire in the President's shadowed war room.
