UCSF Neuroendocrine Carcinoma (NEC) Patient Symposium

This hybrid patient symposium provides education and practical support for people affected by neuroendocrine carcinoma (NEC), their families, and caregivers. UCSF experts and patient advocates will discuss the latest in NEC diagnosis, biology, treatment, and emerging therapies, with sessions exploring neuroendocrine cancers across different organ sites, including thoracic, prostate, gynecologic, gastrointestinal, and Merkel cell carcinoma.

The program will also address strategies for living with NEC and maximizing quality of life, with opportunities for patients, caregivers, advocates, and faculty to connect through moderated discussions, Q&A sessions, and an in-person networking lunch. Virtual attendance is also available.
