WHAT IS #GEOCRCTT?
“It’s the first time we’ve ever hosted an international meeting, and we are thrilled to convene more than 75 scientists and patients, Global partners consistently ask us, ‘How can we meaningfully engage patients and reflect their voices in the science?’ Through this international coalition of scientists, we’re committed to advancing the science with patients at the center. We want to make sure the lessons we’ve learned in the U.S. are shared globally. This isn’t just about presenting research; it’s about rolling up our sleeves and working together to drive it forward. It’s a true dialogue around collaboration, and that level of global partnership simply hasn’t happened before.” -Anjee Davis, CEO of Fight CRC
