We are excited to announce our new Blue Star Conversations, a series of one-hour programs that will feature a brief, timely, topical presentation (just 15-20 minutes) followed by small group member discussions and regrouping for key takeaways. Each Conversation in the series will be hosted by one of NCCRT’s six Strategic Priority Teams.  

Join us for our first Blue Star Conversation on Tuesday, March 29, 2022, from 12:00-1:00 PM ET. The inaugural conversation, What Proportion of Early-Onset Colorectal Cancer is Potentially Preventable Based on Family History and Genetics?, will be hosted by the Family History & Early Age Onset CRC Strategic Priority Team and will feature Heather Hampel, MS, LGC, Associate Director, Division of Cancer Genomics; Professor, Department of Medical Oncology & Therapeutics Research, at City of Hope National Medical Center; and co-chair of the Strategic Priority Team, who will present findings from the recent publication, A High Percentage of Early-age Onset Colorectal Cancer Is Potentially Preventable, published in Gastroenterology.
