Get practical, clinically-relevant perspectives on the evolving landscape of pediatric cancer care
Join us for the sixth webinar in the Columbia HICCC Cancer series, where experts from India and the U.S. come together to address advances in pediatric oncology, one of the most complex and evolving areas of cancer care. Designed for pediatric oncologists, surgeons, radiologists, oncology nurses, and medical students, this webinar explores the full continuum of childhood cancer care — from cutting-edge surgical planning technology, to emerging therapeutics for pediatric brain tumors, to personalizing treatment through pharmacogenomics.
What you will learn:
- The 3D printing in surgical planning: How patient-specific 3D models of neuroblastoma are improving precision and safety in complex pediatric surgeries
- New trends in pediatric brain tumor therapeutics: Emerging treatment approaches and where the field is heading for CNS malignancies in children
- Pharmacogenomics in Pediatric Oncology: How personalizing therapy based on a child's genetic profile can reduce treatment toxicity and long-term late effects
