BCRF scientific conference and symposium
Each year, BCRF holds two signature events during Breast Cancer Awareness Month in October. Our Luncheon and Symposium and Scientific Conference.
The Scientific Conference is held the day prior to the Luncheon and Symposium, and is hosted at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York City. Since inception in 2002, this special event has been generously underwritten by BCRF Advisory Board member, Muriel Siebert.
The Conference is an opportunity for the Foundation to act as convenor in bringing eminent scientists together (all of whom are funded by BCRF) to share discoveries, compare data and explore opportunities for collabroation.
The day after the Conference, our Symposium and Awards Luncheon blends serious discussion at our morning medical Symposium with an entertaining Luncheon at which guests learn the lastest news about BCRF's growth and activities. The highlight is the presentation of grant awards for the coming year to our researchers, who gather on stage for the final accolades in one of the most moving and inspiring moments.
The reports of our October 2007 Conference and Symposium will be posted shortly. In the meantime, please visit the Archives, listed below, of past Conference and Symposium reports.
