What: 5th Biennial Cancer Survivorship Research Conference: Recovery and Beyond
When: June 17-19, 2010
Where: Marriott Wardman Park Hotel, Washington, DC.
Who: The conference is co-sponsored by the National Cancer Institute’s Office of Cancer Survivorship, the American Cancer Society’s Behavioral Research Center, the Lance Armstrong Foundation and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Division of Cancer Prevention and Control.
Why: The conference will feature cutting edge research addressing what we know about the post-treatment health and function of cancer survivors and their families, and new directions in reducing morbidity and promoting well-being.
Information about registration, abstract topics and receipt deadlines, and the survivor-scientist mentoring program as well as grants training workshop will be coming later in the summer. As in 2008, a small number of abstracts will be selected for oral presentations during break-out sessions. We hope that you will mark these dates on your calendar and plan to attend!
