• Dr. Doug Hawkins, newly elected Chair of the Children’s Oncology Group, speaking on his vision for COG, with Q&A on how parent patient advocates fit into that vision

and

• The RACE Act on the Eve of Implementation Panel, a conversation moderated by Dr. Stacey Adam (FNIH) featuring Dr. Malcolm Smith (NCI), Dr. Martha Donoghue (FDA), and Dr. Mark Kieran (Bristol Myers Squibb) discussing the possibilities for pediatric oncology drug development presented by regulations going into effect in August.

We are pleased to share the video recording of our speaker program:
