About the event:
The aim of the meeting is to educate people about melanoma: the prevention, early detection, treatment options and major developments. It will highlight the world-leading research at The Christie Hospital and The Paterson Institute for melanoma treatment and the future initiatives and challenges faced by researchers and clinicians.
There will also be a unique opportunity to listen to a patient’s perspective of being diagnosed and treated for melanoma. There is ample time for the speakers to respond to questions from the audience during an open forum at the end of the talks.
