The programme will highlight the importance of teamwork and interactions between all professionals and specialities involved in breast cancer. Amongst the very stimulating, educational and enjoyable sessions of the programme, highlights will include thought-provoking debates, best practice sessions, dedicated society sessions and exciting clinical science symposia organised throughout the three days.
