SUMMARY:BC Cancer Summit
DESCRIPTION:The BC Cancer Summit’s objective is to provide high-quality education\, focusing on the latest techniques and research in oncology. This is an opportunity for all cancer disciplines and specialty groups to engage and share the most current developments in basic science\, translational research\, clinical trials\, prevention\, treatment\, safety\, clinical and palliative care\, ethics\, and survivorship. This summit will host a truly province-wide collaborative care and research agenda. \nOur overriding goal is to engage professionals in all specialties\, disciplines\, and departments\, including unique tumour groups\, in sharing the revolutionary changes taking place in their respective fields. \nThe conference is largely funded through greatly appreciated unrestricted educational grants from our industry partners\, supplemented by the low delegate registration fees. We purposefully keep these fees low to encourage as many oncology professionals as possible to attend.

SUMMARY:D.R.I.N.K.S.
DESCRIPTION:The D.R.I.N.K.S. (Discussions Relevant to Inspiring New Knowledge and Science) social is held monthly at Mahoneys on Stamps Landing (Old Monk McQueens on False Creek at 601 Stamps Landing). The purpose is to bring together faculty\, clinicians\, scientists\, residents\, trainees\, staff\, entrepreneurs\, bio/pharm staff/execs/veterans\, lawyers\, VCs\, and others with common interests in biomedical/translational research & discovery/commercialization once a month to casually interact and meet new people over a beverage of their choice and/or appetizer. It’s also becoming a great way for people that have just moved to\, or even just visiting Vancouver to meet others in research/biomedical field/industry.
