Cancer Commons Launches Free Educational Webinar Series
Inaugural event, “Breast Cancer Treatment Trends for 2022,” to be held on March 2nd
Breast cancer is the second most pervasive cancer for women, with the second highest rate of cancer mortality . In the first webinar of the series, Cancer Commons’ Chief Scientist Emma Shtivelman, PhD, will be joined by former JAMA Editor and Editor at Large for Medscape and Cancer Commons Editor in Chief George Lundberg, MD, as they discuss cutting-edge options and trends in breast cancer treatment.
The conversation offers an opportunity for cancer patients, survivors, caregivers, and medical professionals to understand the latest significant advancements in treating metastatic breast cancer, engage in the discussion and get their questions answered by Cancer Commons’ experts at no cost.
This is the inaugural event in the Pat Looney Educational Series for Client Empowerment, a quarterly series focused on providing critically needed education and highly requested information to the cancer-impacted community.
“When my mom discovered Cancer Commons during her triple negative treatment plan, she became armed with the information to advocate for herself and take control, which was a powerful and important shift,” says Caitlin Looney Landesberg. “Because of the vital role Cancer Commons played in my mom’s proactive fight against her advanced cancer, she evangelized this valuable service to as many people as possible. This series is part of her legacy and an extension of her desire to help others in a similar position.”
Future webinars in the series will focus on caregiver needs, as well as exciting and significant developments related to other types of cancer.
