The 10th annual Meso Foundation Symposium is a two-day conference for the entire meso community. This is a one-of-a-kind opportunity to learn about the disease and its treatment directly from top experts in mesothelioma, in easy to understand presentations, small-group interactions and even one-on-one conversations. In addition to the latest medical information, the Symposium addresses topics and issues relevant to all attendees, including patients, caregivers and those who have lost loved ones to this disease.
The Meso Foundation Symposium also offers plenty of time to meet others facing similar challenges and allows participants to socialize with the entire meso community. More information is available at www.curemeso.org/symposium.
