ecancer is organising a meeting to celebrate the achievements
of regional centres and groups working on cancer research and care in
South Wales. This informal event is being held at the Life Sciences Hub
in Cardiff on 7th September from 17.00 - 20.00 and will be chaired by
Prof Malcolm Mason and hosted by Prof Gordon McVie. After the talks
there will be a networking session with refreshments.
The event is particularly special for ecancer because it is
the first in series of meetings to mark our ten year anniversary of
partnering with the global oncology community to provide free
educational resources, events, news and open access primary research.
The meeting will be an ideal opportunity for attendees to share their
work with colleagues across the region as well as a chance for them to
forge new collaborations. Our seven speakers will cover a wide range of
topics, from combining drugs with radiotherapy to the specific
challenges in delivering the best cancer care faced by doctors in the
region. There will also be the chance to be interviewed by ecancer.tv on the day.
