Bridging science and practice
A non–credit educational opportunity

Fox Chase Cancer Center, located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, is a national leader in cancer treatment, research and prevention.  Fox Chase now offers a series of non–credit educational webcasts designed to bridge scientific findings in cancer genetics into clinical practice.

We invite you to view any or all of the sessions presented at the Cancer Genetics 2007 symposium held at Fox Chase Cancer Center in March of 2007.
Leading experts, whose experience ranges from gene discovery and function to cancer risk assessment and counseling, present clinicians with cutting edge genetic updates and clinical recommendations to guide their practice in high-risk settings.

These free webcast sessions are available online anytime to physicians and nurses for educational purposes only.  Continuing education credit/ contact hours are NOT available for this educational activity.
