Late last year, more than 200 cancer survivors traveled from across the Midwest to attend the seminar and hear panelists from NorthShore University HealthSystem address topics including ovarian cancer prevention, treatments, clinical research and survivorship. Guests attended a variety of lectures and panel discussions, moderated by nine oncology experts from NorthShore University HealthSystem and other notable institutions across the country. Seminars featured the latest updates in ovarian cancer research and prevention, as well as disease management and survivorship techniques.
