2024 Gynaecological Cancer Patient Symposium

Gynaecological Cancer Patient Symposium | Research Giving Women Hope

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who joined our 2024 Gynaecological Cancer Patient Symposium. The event was a great success, made possible by the engaging and informative presentations from our generous guest speakers, the valuable contributions from our consumer engagement groups, and the participation of patients, families, and guests both in person and via livestream.

We would also like to acknowledge that this event would not have been possible without the generous support of our sponsors, Cherish Women's Cancer Foundation and GSK Australia.

Our Commitment

We are immensely proud of the progress the QCGC Research team has made in developing kinder, gentler, and more effective treatments for women diagnosed with gynaecological cancer. This progress would not have been possible without the dedication and support of our entire QCGC Research community—patients, staff (past and present), donors, collaborators, and other involved organisations and professionals.

We look forward to your participation in future events and thank you for your continued support.
