The 2008 Breast Cancer Symposium: Integrating Emerging Science into Clinical Practice
In the United States, breast cancer is the most common cancer occurring in women and the second most common cause of death from cancer in women, after lung cancer. Due to the overwhelming success of last year’s symposium, this year the 2008 Breast Cancer Symposium has expanded to a three-day multidisciplinary symposium to provide more feature presentations on the latest multidisciplinary research from selected, theme-based translational and clinical abstracts, as well as related educational sessions.
This Symposium will take place on September 5-7 in Washington, DC. Co-sponsors include the American Society of Breast Disease, The American Society of Breast Surgeons, the American Society of Clinical Oncology, the American Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology, the National Consortium of Breast Centers, and The Society of Surgical Oncology.
