Advancing Cancer Care in Alberta: A Multi-Stakeholder Dialogue
Join us for an afternoon bringing oncology, primary care, research and community leaders together to examine how cancer care can reach Albertans sooner and closer to home. The dialogue opens with an overview of the provincial direction for cancer care, followed by a moderated panel that takes up the questions at the heart of the afternoon, drawing on perspectives from across care, research and community. The discussion then opens to the floor, shaped by the people in the room.
