We are pleased to announce that the Melbourne International Breast Congress will be held jointly with the Australasian Society for Breast Disease (ASBD), 4th World Congress on Controversies in Breast Cancer (CoBrCa) and Breast Surgeons of Australia and New Zealand (BreastSurgANZ). This most important congress will take place in Melbourne, Australia, October 11-14, 2018. As the main congress in the field of breast diseases in the Asia-Pacific region in 2018, it is one that should not be missed!

The Joint Congress will continue the tradition of CoBrCa by directly addressing key issues facing clinicians in their daily practice, including medical oncology, surgery, radiation oncology, pathology, reconstruction, breast imaging, allied health and survivorship issues. The collaboration will create a multi-faceted congress of interest to all involved in the treatment of breast disease and will bring many renowned experts to Australia. Through a format of debates, lectures and panel discussions, the congress will provide a forum to effectively address unresolved clinical and therapeutic problems.  There will also be a series of workshops and education sessions preceding and during the meeting to address the educational needs of the audience

We look forward to your participation in this exceptional event.

Sincerely,

Yvonne Zissiadis   Bruce Mann   Christobel Saunders
