Seventh Annual Laura Evans Memorial Breast Cancer Symposium Our Seventh Annual Symposium, entitled, "Breast Cancer Metastases: Formation, Detection, Treatment," was held in Sun Valley, ID in February 2003. The international panel of doctors, scientists, and researchers presented and discussed their new and innovative studies as they applied to breast cancer metastases. EI also hosted an Open Forum, which was a huge success, with very informative presentations given by several of the Symposium participants. The Open Forum concluded with a Q & A session from the general public to the panel of researchers. The 2004 Symposium is again scheduled for February in Sun Valley. It isentitled, "Breast Cancer—The Development and Validation of New Therapeutics." Check out our website for Open Forum information.
