2021 Cholangiocarcinoma Foundation Annual Conference
The 2021 Conference will build upon the foundation laid at previous year's meetings as key opinion leaders both nationally and internationally, come together to collaborate and exchange knowledge. The program will seek to develop sustainable participation of the medical and research communities in the field of cholangiocarcinoma by:
Knowledge
Increasing the knowledge and understanding of attendees about key issues central to the prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and cure for cholangiocarcinoma
A New Perspective
Identifying gaps and gathering consensus on rapidly changing advances in basic, translational, and clinical research
Stimulate
Stimulating interdisciplinary cross-cooperation and sharing best practices by developing, strengthening, and supporting collaborations
Innovation
Fostering dialogue and inspiring innovation across the world
Further, because patients living with cholangiocarcinoma have a direct stake in their own medical care and are in a unique position to provide input, CCF has expanded its Annual Conference to include programming that addresses questions and concerns that are important to patients and their families. Patients and caregivers-having experienced the disease firsthand-will be invited to learn about cholangiocarcinoma, share their personal experiences, and contribute to future efforts to further cholangiocarcinoma research.
