Annual Congress

Built around the theme Elevate Cancer Nursing: Innovate. Integrate. Educate. Advocate., the program will explore how nurses are driving change — through new models of care, collaborative practice, education, and leadership that translate evidence into impact.

What to Expect:

Plenary sessions from leading voices in cancer care.
Concurrent presentations showcasing research, innovation, and clinical excellence.
Workshops designed to build practical skills and strengthen collaboration.
Networking events that connect the cancer nursing community

The full program will be released in early 2026. Stay tuned for updates and speaker announcements.
