Our 2019 Patient & Community Symposium promises to be an exciting event. This year’s theme is Survivorship and a remarkable woman, Dicey Scroggins, has set the program. Dicey is an ovarian cancer survivor and is the International Gynecologic Cancer Society’s first Director of Global Outreach and Engagement. She will be in Brisbane to speak at the event.
At the Symposium, learn about the latest gynaecological cancer developments from top researchers. Hear specialists talk about food, sleep and relationships following a cancer diagnosis. Listen as Ella Bache CEO, Pippa Hallas, shares her family’s experience and as three brave survivors tell theirs. Scroll down for the full agenda. Please join us.
