From August 25 to 26, in Hue City, the Vietnam Cancer Patient Forum will take place. This is a large-scale event organized by Salt Cancer Initiative (SCI), aiming to connect experts and leading doctors in the field of oncology in Vietnam and around the world to share and update the most advanced medical information, and at the same time answer questions with patients in Vietnam.
The program gathered hundreds of patients and their relatives to share inspirational stories and a positive spirit. The program was attended by leading experts and doctors in the field of oncology from home and abroad (University of Chicago, Stanford University), along with the participation of support organizations and hundreds of cancer patients in Vietnam.
With the mission of supporting the community so that "You don't have to fight cancer alone", the program will be a bridge to provide accurate medical information, update the latest advances in the field of cancer research and treatment. At the same time, the program also connects the patient community together to inspire and spread the spirit of optimism and love of life.
This is an opportunity for patients in Vietnam to update on advances in treatment methods, ask questions directly to experts to have more opportunities to choose the direction of treatment for their disease.
With in-depth content such as: "Precision medicine in the treatment and prevention of breast and ovarian cancer", "Prevention and early detection of cervical cancer", "Advances in the treatment of ovarian cancer", "Immunotherapy", "Lung cancer screening", "Palliative care in cancer treatment", "Impact of indoor air pollution on health",...
In addition, the program also gathered and connected hundreds of patients from all over the country to Hue to attend the forum. The program had the participation of many "cancer warriors" who had steadfastly overcome the disease, now sharing inspirational stories about determination, faith, optimism, and encouraging the spirit of "cancer warriors" who were newly diagnosed with the disease.
Notably, there are prominent faces who participated in the Vietnam Cancer Patient Forum in 2018, now returning to help the community.
Salt Cancer Initiative (SCI) is a social enterprise founded by Ms. Truong Thanh Thuy (Thuy Muoi), aiming to provide accurate medical information and knowledge & organize activities to support the cancer patient community in Vietnam.
After more than 6 years of operation with the motto: "You don't have to fight cancer alone!", SCI has created many programs and activities to accompany more than 25,000 cancer patients, relatives and people interested in cancer in Vietnam.
