VIVA Foundation for Children with Cancer in collaboration with the St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital is excited to bring a new series of the St Jude-VIVA Survivorship from 7th October to 5th March 2023.
The St Jude-VIVA Survivorship seeks to bring together international experts to educate healthcare professionals on the best practices and standard of care for childhood cancer survivorship. We seek to advance the importance of survivorship care and to provide a platform for paediatric oncology practitioners of diverse backgrounds to convene and address the challenges associated with the delivery of survivorship care.
For series 2, we will be featuring case presentations followed by a discussion of the data informing current clinical practice recommendations and guidelines, as well as the implementation of these protocols across diverse healthcare systems around the globe.
