EORTC presents at the European Breast Cancer Conference (EBCC-11)

In a few days time, the 11th edition of the European Breast Cancer Conference (EBCC-11) will begin in Barcelona (21-23 March 2018).

This conference will provide a unique multidisciplinary setting for health care professionals with a common interest in breast cancer to discuss, debate, inform and educate themselves about this evolving disease landscape.

The aim of EBCC is to provide a European multidisciplinary platform for scientific exchanges on all aspects of breast cancer, from bench to bedside.
