Meet on Paediatric Oncology
SIOP 2007 E – Newsletter
“Let us not be content to wait and see what happens. Let us have the determination and make the right things happen.”
Dear Colleagues,
I am happy to share with you that ‘SIOP – 2007’ is being held in Mumbai between 30th October and 3rd November, 2007
At the onset we would like to introduce SIOP to you. SIOP is the major global organization concerned with the issues of children and young people who have cancer. For the past 40 years it has brought together doctors of many different disciplines to develop better care for this disease. SIOPs mission is to bring the best possible care for children with cancer to the farthest corners of the globe. It is currently a minority of sufferers who have access to the incredible advances which have been made over the lifetime of SIOP. When we started, 75% of children with cancer died. Now, with the best treatment 75% can be cured. However, there are many parts of the world where few, if any, children have access to the best, or even limited treatment. SIOP aims to bring together all of those concerned with the care of children with cancer.
This has come as a wonderful opportunity to get together and showcase the work being done in the field of pediatric oncology in India.
There is a special segment for parents and childhood cancer survivors.
We are writing to you to ask you to join in this effort. Let us all come together and make the best use of this platform to project our work and our ideas.
Looking forward to hearing from you at the earliest (last date 31st Dec.)
