Myeloma Study Days 29th June & 5th July 2017

For the last two years BOPA has successfully worked alongside Amgen to deliver Myeloma study days featuring the excellent Elaine Vickers who can really bring the science of novel agents life, the day will also feature clinical updates from leading local clinicians.  
 
The good news is the event organisers, Amgen, are able to make the days free for BOPA members.  It’s also worth noting that the study days are non-promotional educational events so the speakers will be covering all new drug developments in myeloma.  The feedback from last year’s events was excellent so it’s definitely one for the diary.

Look out for emails with details of how to register for the Sheffield study day on 29th June 2017 and the London study day on 5th July 2017.
