About the Cutaneous Lymphoma Summit
Hosted by the Cutaneous Lymphoma Foundation, the Cutaneous Lymphoma Summit is aimed at facilitating dialogue among all stakeholders in cutaneous lymphoma and at highlighting, as well as prioritizing, broad programmatic areas for collaborative work.
Scientific Program
A significant share of the scientific program has been given to leading investigators not primarily involved in the field, with the goal of broadening the cutaneous lymphoma community’s scientific horizons and of enhancing the application of new concepts in immunology, genetics, pharmacology, and imaging. The single most desired outcome of the Summit is the identification of common ground on key basic and clinical targets to be rapidly tackled by the cutaneous lymphoma research community and to be reassessed annually for progress. Scholarships are available for residents who wish to attend the full weekend Scientific Program. Download the Cutaneous Lymphoma Summit Resident Scholarship Application Form here.
Patient Program
In addition to the scientific program, there will be a day-long Cutaneous Lymphoma Patient Educational Forum, which is an exceptional opportunity for patients. This event provides accurate information about cutaneous lymphomas and treatment options. This also gives patients access to experts in the field, and connects them with other patients for support.
Nurse Program
The Cutaneous Lymphoma Foundation presents a Sunday program specific to nurses across disciplines (dermatology, oncology, hematology) working with cutaneous lymphoma patients. Partial scholarships are available for nurses who wish to attend the full weekend Scientific Program. Download the Cutaneous Lymphoma Summit Nurse Scholarship Application Form here.
