Hussein Tawbi: Honored to co-chair the SNO ASCO 2024 with Priya Kumthekar

Hussein Tawbi shared on X:

“It has been a real honor to co-chair the 2024 SNO/ASCO CNS Metastases Conference Denver, CO, in partnership with the amazing Dr. Priya Kumthekar, many thanks to Daphne Haas-Kogan SNO president for her presence and support and ASCO President Lynn Schuchter for the opportunity.

After an afternoon of concurrent think tank meetings for Brain Mets and LMD, a workshop for early career investigators, our first session on Thurs brought leaders from large and small pharma companies to engage in candid conversations addressing barriers to drug development in this population.”
