ABC Global Alliance meet-and-greet event

If you are already an ABC Global Alliance member or if you are interested in becoming one and collaborating on common projects relating to advanced breast cancer (ABC) around the world, please join us for a Meet and Greet meeting during the ESMO congress. During the meeting a short summary of all the 2018 initiatives will be provided and followed by a questions and answers session.
The meeting will provide an opportunity not just to know more about the Alliance but also to get acquainted and to discuss how to collaborate on future initiatives.
