Support of the NAACCR Annual Scientific Conference

描述（由申请人提供）：NAACCR 年会的具体目标是支持一次高质量的科学会议，为整个癌症监测界提供有关科学进步和新兴方法的教育机会；增加美国和加拿大各地在各种关键主题上的互动和网络；为癌症监测科学家提供展示和分享研究成果、操作工具和方法的机会；通过认证和年度奖项认可癌症监测方面的成就；促进国家和国际跨卫生学科的交流与合作，以鼓励癌症监测系统的开发和整合；并保持所有中央癌症登记处使用的标准的共识制定。 NAACCR 通过聘请由国际专家组成的计划委员会进行仔细的计划规划并监督年度计划评估来实现这些目标。每年，会议内容包括癌症监测中最重要的新主题，并为讨论新发现和方法提供论坛。自 1987 年以来，尖端科学与成功的会议形式相结合，再加上强大的会议管理，构成了我们高质量年度科学会议的基础。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The specific aims of the NAACCR Annual Conference are to support a high-quality scientific meeting that provides an educational opportunity for the entire cancer surveillance community regarding scientific advances and emerging methodologies; increases interaction and networking throughout the U.S. and Canada on a broad variety of critical topics; provides an opportunity for cancer surveillance scientists to present and share research results, operations tools, and methodologies; recognizes the achievements in cancer surveillance through certification and annual awards; stimulates national and international communication and cooperation across health disciplines to encourage development and integration of cancer surveillance systems; and maintains consensus development of standards used in all central cancer registries. NAACCR achieves these aims by careful program planning employing a Program Committee consisting of international experts, and monitoring annual program evaluations. Annually, the conference content includes the most important new topics in cancer surveillance and provides a forum for discussion of new findings and methods. Cutting edge science, integrated into a successful meeting format, coupled with strong meeting management have formed the foundation of our high quality annual scientific meeting since 1987.
