to the 2015 NMTRC Symposium Program (4.4MB PDF

1 Welcome!
On behalf of the Neuroblastoma Medulloblastoma Translational Research Consortium
(NMTRC), DELL, and the organizing committee, I would like to welcome you all to the 2015
NMTRC Annual Symposium. We are thankful to DELL for supporting us this year for what will
be a groundbreaking meeting. Once again we will be bringing together the experts in
these diseases, including physicians, researchers and parent advocates who work together
to accelerate the search for a cure. Our team will share our work uncovering the genomic
differences and targets in children’s cancers, sharing our advances in sequencing and
personalized medicine. This year we have combined this knowledge to target cancers at
diagnosis for better response rates with the targeting of cancer stem cells to prevent
children from relapsing. As a result, we will share our newest innovative protocol for children
with neuroblastoma for treatment at diagnosis. We welcome Dan Munro, an expert on the
interface between IT and healthcare from Forbes Magazine to help us in addressing the
transition and incorporation of genomics into clinical care and insurance reimbursement to
make this a reality for all patients in this year’s panel discussion.
Thank you for joining with us in our commitment to finding cures for patients with
Neuroblastoma and Medulloblastoma.
Sincerely,
Giselle Sholler, MD MSc.
