Our IBC sister, Sirpa, is hosting an IBC meeting! Location and time to be announced soon. Please rsvp to hello@theibcnetwork.org and we will connect you!

Tribute to Kimmie D.

Celebrate with a purpose! Wear a casual outfit with a splash of pink and join us for an evening of live music, beverages, and food trucks under the stars.

The James Cancer Hospital’s Stefanie Spielman Comprehensive Breast Center recently launched an inflammatory breast cancer (IBC) program. The IBC program is the first in the state of Ohio and one of only five in the nation. Just last fall, the Dr. Lori Gill Grennan Inflammatory Breast Cancer Fund was established. Proceeds from our fundraiser go toward this fund and will be used for research on why inflammatory breast cancer has such a unique pattern or spread and aggressive course. The specialized IBC program was a long term goal, first considered by my sister, Dr. Lori Gill Grennan, a young doctor from Ohio, stricken by the disease. For years and in honor of Lori, our family has partnered with the IBC Network Foundation to support IBC research at MD Anderson, Dana Farber, and Vanderbilt. After years of preparations, we were able to underwrite an IBC program here in Ohio and get a legacy fund in Lori’s name started. We are thrilled to partner with The James Cancer Hospital’s Stefanie Spielman Comprehensive Breast Center to offer world class care for this aggressive disease to women in and around our community. Please join us in supporting this milestone! Your support, by forming a team, being a donor and/or asking friends to donate, will assist in making a strike against the most fatal form of breast cancer, inflammatory breast cancer. Because of your generosity, the women of Ohio, and even surrounding states, will have better odds to beat this disease.

In memory of Dr. Lori Gill Grennan,
Kara Kent

Now in its 46^th year, the meeting hosts about 10,000 clinicians and scientists from all over the world and is the largest and most prestigious scientific gathering on breast cancer research.

This international scientific symposium allows for the important interactions and exchanges between basic scientists and clinicians devoted to improved diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer. We are committed to meet the needs of breast cancer patients through high-quality and equal access to care to include prevention, early detection, and treatment. The Mays Cancer Center agrees with the AACR’s position strongly affirming its support for equitable access to quality health care services for all patients. We remain a champion of evidence-based health care, diversity, equity, inclusion and acceptance as core values which are deeply ingrained in our life’s work and mission.

Meeting Goals/Purpose

This Symposium is designed to provide state-of-the-art information on the experimental biology, etiology, prevention, diagnosis, and therapy of breast cancer and premalignant breast disease to an international audience of academic and private physicians and researchers.
