5th Annual International Symposium: Improving Breast Cancer Management and Outcomes

项目摘要/摘要： 这次科学会议的总体目标是加强预防乳腺癌的能力。 改善低收入和中等收入国家乳腺癌管理差距的管理 (LMIC)和发达国家。这一目标反映了乳腺癌在LMCI中日益增长的负担， 基础设施相对匮乏，研究领域的投资也很少。这次研讨会将有助于 在LMIC和美国提高对多学科乳腺癌治疗和结果的认识。 会议内容寻求通过让乳腺癌护理提供者和 研究人员为乳腺癌的早期发现和治疗制定建议，以改善 LMIC中乳腺癌干预的证据基础。 由于资源的限制，包括技术和劳动力的限制，以及社会决定因素 乳腺癌发病率、高收入国家乳腺癌研究和治疗范例 不能仅仅通过对低资源环境的较小适应来推断。这次会议将利用 学员的专业知识和经验，以促进新的概念、方法、方法和 针对低资源环境的干预措施，在这些环境中，乳腺癌往往是一个不发达的领域。 研究计划和示范项目将鼓励这些新概念的应用， 方法、方法和干预措施，以及改进证据的严格评估- 基地。虽然从事这一领域的专家们热情高涨，但国际旅行的财务限制 经常限制他们见面的能力。此外，这次会议有一个模式，它将呈现自己 充分讨论、异议和整合不同学科的观点。 专题讨论会的形式和议程是专门针对其具体主题设计的。这个 会议的结构允许专家就每个重点领域进行简短的陈述，以提高知识水平 分享，随后进行深入的促进讨论，以鼓励产生新的方法和 促进协作。 为期四天的会议旨在实现主题，并就每个重点领域进行简要介绍。 第一天和第二天是全天的研讨会、实践和培训，包括外科、病理学、 放射学和其他主题。后半部分(第三天和第四天)将是从以下内容开始的深入介绍 个别国家乳腺癌公共卫生流行病学。第四天是翻译研究的汇编 循证程序的实际应用，包括外科、病理学、放射学、 肿瘤学、姑息治疗和精确医学，讨论由现场专家主持。

Project Summary/Abstract: The overall objective of this scientific meeting is to strengthen capacity for breast cancer management to ameliorate breast cancer management disparities in the low – and middle-income countries (LMIC) and developed world. This objective reflects the growing burden of breast cancer in LMCI, with a comparable paucity of infrastructure and little investment in the field of research. The symposium will serve to improve awareness of multidisciplinary breast cancer management and outcomes in LMIC and United States. The conference content seeks to shift clinical paradigms by engaging breast cancer care providers and researchers to develop recommendations for early detection and management of breast cancer that improves the evidence-base for breast cancer intervention in LMIC. Due to limitations of resources, both technical and of workforce, as well as social determinants of breast cancer incidence, the breast cancer research and treatment paradigms from high- income nations cannot merely be extrapolated with minor adaptations to low-resource settings. This meeting will leverage the expertise and experience of participants to foster novel concepts, approaches, methodologies, and interventions specific to low-resource settings, where breast cancer is often an under-developed field. The research plans and demonstration projects will encourage the application of these new concepts, approaches, methodologies, and interventions, along with rigorous evaluation to improve the evidence- base. While the experts engaged in this field are enthusiastic, the financial limitations of international travel often restrict their ability to meet. Furthermore, this conference has a schema that will render itself to ample discussion, dissent, and integration of viewpoints from the different disciplines. The format and agenda of the symposium are designed specifically to address its specific themes. The meeting is structured to allow for brief presentations on each focus area by experts to improve knowledge sharing, followed by in-depth facilitated discussion to encourage the generation of novel approaches and stimulate collaboration. The four-day meeting is structured to achieve the themes with brief presentations on each focus area. Day-one and two which are full day of workshops and hands-on and training, covers Surgery, Pathology, Radiology and other topics. The second half (day-three and four) will be an in-depth presentations starting with individual country breast cancer public health epidemiology. Day-four is a compilation of translational research and practical application of evidence-based procedures that includes topics of surgery, pathology, radiology, oncology, palliative care and precision medicine with discussions chaired by field experts.
