4th Global Adolescent and Young Adult Cancer Congress

This year’s programme, which is online for the first time ever, will tackle the biggest issues facing adolescent and young adult (AYA) cancer care in 2021 – from mental health during treatment and beyond, and inequalities in accessing care, to lessons learned from the pandemic.

The congress profiles the latest advances in research, treatment and recovery of AYA with cancer.
