Erika Ruiz-Garcia, Professor of Gastrointestinal Oncology and Head of the Translational Medicine Department at the National Cancer Institute of Mexico (INCan), shared on LinkedIn:
“Preparing and delivering the GI Lower Highlights at ESMO26, definitely one of the most intense and rewarding challenges of my career. Representing Mexico in front of 40,000+ attendees carries a huge responsibility, especially when summarizing the science that will actually change clinical practice.
Having Dr. Yelena Janjigian as Chair and sharing the stage with Dr. Florian Lordick made the entire experience even more special. Deeply grateful for the trust and for the opportunity to bring our region’s voice to such a critical global discussion.”
