Additionally\, panelists will cover clinical trials\, promising studies\, and breaking news. \nSurvivorship Primer: Quality of Life Matters\nWe will talk about survivorship—quality of life—with a focus on palliative care (comfort care) as a part of the continuum of care; self-care\, nutrition\, meditation and other stress relievers; and the importance of documenting one’s health history and journey. \nEmpowered through Patient Advocacy\nThrough advocacy\, survivors/patients\, caregivers\, families\, and communities worldwide are empowered. We will share examples—as inspiration and how-to examples—of patient advocacy in action. Powerful! \nCancer Site-Specific Breakout Sessions\nModerated cancer site-specific breakout sessions will allow participants to focus on site-specific issues and to network. \nAll panels will include patient/survivor panelists. \nOptional After-Summit Chat/Networking Session\nIf you have a few minutes to chat and network after the Summit panels\, we invite you to share your experience\, continue the discussion of panel topics\, make new “friends\,” and otherwise network.
