We will be hosting an invite-only proton therapy symposium at The Hyatt Confidante in Miami Beach, Florida sponsored by IBA and our industry partner RaySearch Laboratories.
The symposium takes place over two days and covers topics such as The State of Proton Therapy in the U.S., Clinical Challenges and Opportunities, Indications and Patient Selection, and Future Technologies. We have confirmed a large faculty of key opinion leaders in the field, including event co-chairs Jim Metz and Minesh Mehta.
See below for additional details and registration.
The event will take place at the Hyatt Confidante. Our room block is now closed; however, we have a few remaining rooms on hold. If you would like to book a room, please e-mail courtney.lundgren@iba-group.com to check availability.
