On Friday, October 21,2011 Lahey Clinic’s Sophia Gordon Cancer Center sponsored “The Promising Future of Cancer Care” at the Boston Marriott Burlington. We are pleased to say the event was an overwhelming success. The conference attracted more than 350 appreciative members of the public, who spent the afternoon enthusiastically diving into sessions on advances in diagnosing and treating cancer.
Several noted Lahey Clinic physicians had the pleasure of presenting to highly captivated audiences who gained insight on cutting edge treatments for lung, colorectal, prostate, head and neck, and breast cancer, as well as breast radiotherapy. The conference kicked-off with opening remarks by Lahey Clinic CEO, Dr. Howard Grant and closed with a powerful keynote address by renowned breast cancer researcher Dr. Susan Love, president of the Dr. Susan Love Research Foundation.
Following the conference, a line of eager people waited for the opportunity to personally greet Dr. Love, as well as some of the Lahey physicians who presented throughout the day.
We thank those who participated and those who attended helping to make this event a great success.
