Welcome to the twelfth edition of the Gathering Around Cancer meeting which serves as an annual update on the latest trends and treatments in medical oncology.

Our annual meeting also offers an opportunity for Irish people involved in many aspects of cancer care at home and abroad to gather in Dublin. Once again, a multidisciplinary clinical team will be joined by colleagues from basic science, healthcare management and from Industry.

We aim to focus on the topics that change the way we approach the management of cancer, with a focus on clinical updates, amending care pathways as the evidence and circumstances change, while still fostering research collaborations.
