Castle Biosciences Collaborates with The Sun Bus to Provide Free Skin Cancer Screenings

The Sun Bus will make a stop at Castle’s headquarters in the Houston area on Monday, May 16

Castle Biosciences, Inc. (Nasdaq: CSTL), a company improving health through innovative tests that guide patient care, today announced that for the second year, it is a national sponsor of The Sun Bus, a mobile clinic that provides free skin checks and sun safety education across numerous U.S. states.

“Skin cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in the U.S.,” said Tamara Terzian, Ph.D., executive director of The Sun Bus, “so it is important that people know how to protect their skin and are aware of the need to perform periodic skin checks. The Sun Bus allows us to take this important message on the road and share it with thousands of people on our tours each year.”

The Sun Bus plans to provide over 360 hours of free skin screening services and sun safety education at more than 50 locations across Texas, Georgia, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, Wyoming, Colorado, New Mexico and Arizona during its expanded and extended 2022 tour. This includes a stop at Castle’s headquarters in Friendswood, Texas, on Monday, May 16.

“At Castle, we are passionate about improving patient care, and that begins first with education and awareness around the importance of prevention and the early detection of skin cancer,” said Derek Maetzold, president and chief executive officer of Castle Biosciences. “The Sun Bus makes getting a skin cancer screening from a medical professional possible for many who may not otherwise have the opportunity, and we are proud to be a major national sponsor of their mobile clinic.”
