Looking Forward to #ASCO26

This year's ASCO Annual Meeting runs from May 29 - June 2, 2026 in Chicago. The theme this year is "The Science and Practice of Translation:Improving Cancer Outcomes Worldwide". 

I will be attending virtually, so I know I will experience FOMO when I see the postings by other cancer advocates on social media. I will not miss the long walks to get to sessions in the various buildings at McCormick. But I will miss meeting up with other cancer advocates in the ASCO Advocate Lounge and interacting with gyn cancer researchers who through the years have become friends. 

There are a few new ASCO Voices that I look forward to following this year on X including @DrBarbiOnc, @NazliDizman ,  @Ramila, @YGaritaonaindia  and @DrSAHAddad. I recommend you follow them too, 

I recently planned my attendance to focus on ovarian cancer session.
