Article Body: Medical student Greg Bourgeoise (left), and doctors Jennifer Cafardi (center) and Raj Varma were among the seven UAB participants promoting sun safety awareness at the recent Regions Charity Golf Classic. The group handed out sunscreen samples and educational materials and offered to apply sunscreen to those who needed it as part of the “Play Safe in the Sun” campaign. Statistics show that one in 5 people will acquire non-melanoma skin cancer and approximately one in 70 will get a melanoma. Physicians participating at the Regions Classic in addition to Cafardi and Varma were Conway Huang, Kristin Haushalter, Elise Lirette and Michelle Marks.
