Are you ready to join colleagues March 25 – 28 in Boston to push progress further together? SSO 2020 is completely reimagined and offers attendees outstanding clinical content in a variety of formats that are conducive to learning, challenging ideas and interacting with peers. Symposia sessions offer a range of programming from “Perioperative Opioids in Surgical Oncology for Patients: Call for Action” to “Practice Changing Studies of 2019” where the most important surgical oncology topics and data will be presented. Hear SSO 2020 Scientific Program Chair, Herbert Zeh, MD talk about program highlights on the SSO 2020 podcast.
The highly anticipated SSO HUB is a new and interactive experience that replaces the conventional exhibit hall. The HUB will feature five clinical zones: Breast/Endocrine, HPB, Melanoma/Sarcoma, Colorectal/Upper GI and Immuno-Oncology. Each Zone will have a theater where ePosters, clinical trial discussions and meet-the-expert sessions will take place. All of this is in addition to the HUB Main Stage where you may view debates, challenging case reviews, industry spotlights and clinical trial updates. In fact, over 60% of SSO 2020 content will be presented in the HUB. Hear more about SSO HUB by listening to the podcast.
Below is a sample of programming available on the HUB Main Stage and in the Zones:
Invasive Lobular Carcinoma: How is it Different and Does that Affect Management?- Minimally Invasive Surgery for Cancer: Adopt or Abandon?
- Sarcoma Tumor Board: Challenging and Controversial Cases
