Global-Oral-Oncology-Summit 2024

 

Join us in Bhubaneshwar for conference and marathon

February 3rd and 4th February 2024

 

Oral cancer ranks among the most prevalent cancers in India, accounting for 80% of global cases. However, the country grapples with inadequate facilities, infrastructure, and support systems, leaving many patients underserved, particularly in advanced stages of diagnosis.

The IJOCD team invites students, professionals, and researchers in the field of Oral Cancer to contribute and publish their research, fostering community networking to fortify the ecosystem and establish platforms for awareness and high-quality research dissemination. Delegates can be from any medical specialty

This conference endeavors to enhance awareness and share strategies for managing initial oral cavity tumors within East Indian communities, characterized by a high prevalence of smokeless tobacco use.

Aligned with the World Cancer Day 2024 theme, “Close the Care Gap,” the sessions and programming will address the urgent need for equitable cancer care.
