Sydney Cancer Conference 2021

Sydney Cancer Conference (SCC2021) will be held September 9 and 10, 2021 online. The virtual conference will take place within a specialised online conferencing platform which will enable a dynamic program of presentations and interactivity. SCC2021 in virtual format will be open and easily accessible to regional, interstate and international speakers and attendees and also enable safe attendance and fully participation by cancer consumers with health concerns who may prefer to minimise interpersonal contact.
