There are several unique features that set this review apart from the others:

n Expert Faculty - our faculty, unmatched in experience and expertise, will present the latest scientific findings in oncology and best practices in the advances in cancer prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and survivorship. n Daily Q&A review sessions - allows attendees to gauge their knowledge base and become familiar with board-type questions.

n Study Resources – all course attendees will receive complimentary access to the course App and the archived recordings of the lectures for one year.

This year the course has been moved to the Ritz-Carlton Pentagon City. This hotel is located just moments from Washington DC and offers easy access to historic monuments, world-class museums, fine dining, and shopping.
