Rare Cancers Patient & Caregivers Education Symposium

We hope you will join us for the Rare Cancers Patient & Caregivers Education Symposium. This event is specifically designed to elevate patient voices and foster meaningful connections between those living with a diagnosis, their caregivers, and dedicated advocates. Together, we will demystify the latest research through accessible discussions and advocate for progress in the rare cancer space.

This in-person event is geared toward a broad audience and is designed to place the human experience at the center of the conversation. Topics from distinguished speakers and patient advocates will include:

  • What makes a cancer “rare” and why it matters
  • Navigating diagnosis, treatment, and clinical trials
  • A window into the lab – what happens to donated tissue
  • Emotional and practical realities of living with rare cancers
  • How patients can drive progress

All are welcome and invited to attend. If interested in attending, please register here so we may plan appropriately.

Hosted by the Transformative Rare Cancer Initiative (TRACER) at Fred Hutch Cancer Center. For questions or more information, please contact Rarecancers@fredhutch.org.
