The 67th Annual American Society for Radiation Oncology (ASTRO) Meeting
It was fantastic to be at the ASTRO Annual Meeting in San Francisco representing World Radiotherapy Awareness Day (WRAD). It was a truly inspiring few days connecting with radiation oncology colleagues from around the world and immersing in an outstanding scientific program.
The WRAD Committee and I are so grateful to ASTRO and its leadership, especially Jeff White, Dr Sameer Keole and Dr Neha Vapiwali, the new President for their ongoing support of WRAD and for championing global radiation oncology collaboration to raise awareness and improve access to radiotherapy.
A huge thank you also to our WRAD sponsors, including Varian and Accuray, whose partnership has been critical to our success in sharing the WRAD message with such a wide audience. And extra love to my Aussie #WomenWhoCure friends for proudly debuting the bright blue WRAD T-shirts- you lit up the meeting! 💙
The energy, innovation, and sense of #radonc community at ASTRO this year were a powerful reminder of why our specialty and our advocacy thru WRAD, matter more than ever.
