Neuroblastoma Parent Global Symposium 2021

Registration is now open for the virtual Neuroblastoma Parent Global Symposium on 5 & 6 November!

Register now and find out more about this year’s event, including session and speaker information at www.nbparentsymposium.com

This year’s event will focus on topics that affect many families within the neuroblastoma community, as well as featuring specialised conversation rooms for those who wish to discuss more specific interests. Over 20 experts will be present to share the latest updates in neuroblastoma research, as well as discuss openly with the family audience.

This was an absolutely fantastic event, very informative and excellently run. As a family member of someone with neuroblastoma, it was great to hear of the newer treatment options and hear survivor stories. Rosie, NPGS2020 Attendee

Solving Kids’ Cancer UK, the Children’s Neuroblastoma Cancer Foundation, and Solving Kids’ Cancer (US) have a long history of collaboration and partnership, as well as a wealth of experience in creating and hosting events to meet parent needs.

As neuroblastoma support and research charities we advocate passionately for children and families affected by neuroblastoma. The Neuroblastoma Parent Global Symposium 2021 will enable families, and all those who work to treat, help and support them, to access vital information, networking opportunities and share experience.

This event highlighted how well connected the oncology world is and that we are fortunate to have so many amazing experts around the globe searching for better treatments/cures for this devastating disease. Adam, NPGS2020 Attendee

We are proud to be working with our supporters GRC World Forums who are donating the event platform and technical expertise. We are also thankful to Y-mAbs Therapeutics, Jubilant, and Sanofi for their support in making this event possible!
