Iowa’s only conference dedicated to comprehensive cancer control.
Back in person for the first time since 2019, this year we will be unveiling the 2023-2027 Iowa Cancer Plan! Speakers and panels will focus on new elements of the revised cancer plan including pediatric cancer, environmental health, patient navigators, and precision medicine. We will also be highlighting the importance of cancer screening after COVID and efforts to reduce cancer health disparities in Iowa.
