DESCRIPTION:  The Colorectal Cancer Association of Canada (CCAC) in collabo
 ration with the Canadian Oncology Societies (COS)\, OncologyEducation.com 
 and the Groupe d'étude en oncologie du Québec (GEOQ) is proud to host an i
 nternational expert-level conference chaired by Dr. Jean Maroun (Ottawa Ho
 spital) and Dr. Axel Grothey (Mayo Clinic) entitled Personalized Medicine 
 in the Management of Colorectal Cancer in Montreal\, Quebec on November 5t
 h and 6th\, 2013\, to promote a better understanding of how medicine and s
 ociety are preparing for a new age in cancer treatment.   With advances in
  technology and a progressive understanding of cancer biology\, personaliz
 ed medicine is being applied in cancer diagnosis and treatment. Knowledge 
 of a patient’s genetic makeup is driving the selection of the most effecti
 ve therapies and the personalized medicine approach to the treatment of co
 lorectal cancer will help physicians detect cancer earlier and improve pat
 ient outcomes.   This multidisciplinary meeting will cover how these conce
 pts are being incorporated into today’s clinical practices\, to an audienc
 e of clinical researchers\, members of the pharmaceutical industry\, gover
 nment regulatory authorities\, healthcare management organisations\, physi
 cians\, patients\, oncologists\, and others in the healthcare community. A
 t a time when health care is evolving rapidly\, this expert conference wil
 l highlight how we are preparing the landscape for the adoption of persona
 lized medicine in the clinic.     Contact: Stephani A. (514) 875-7745 ext.
