Adda Bounedjar, Chairman of the Medical Oncology Department at the Anti-Cancer Center (CAC) in Blida, shared a post on LinkedIn:
“This webinar aims to highlight the wide range of opportunities, grants, and fellowship programs offered by ASCO, while also serving as a platform to explore collaborative initiatives that support and empower the next generation of oncologists across the MENA and Africa regions. These goals strongly align with the mission of Ain Shams University to advance education, research excellence, and regional capacity building, as well as ASCO’s mission to conquer cancer through research, education, and the delivery of high-quality patient care.
To enrich the dialogue and ensure diverse perspectives, we would greatly appreciate your support in inviting your colleagues, trainees, and professional followers to register and join the webinar through your official institutional and social media platforms. Their participation will help foster broader insights and contribute to shaping a shared roadmap for meaningful, sustainable impact in oncology across our regions.”
Jasmine Kamboj, Medical Oncologist and Hematologist at Mayo Clinic, Podcast Editor and Host of the “Empowering Oncologists” Podcast at OncoDaily, Recipient of the Yvonne Award 2025 in the “Community Oncology” Category, shared Adda Bounedjar’s adding:
“World Cancer Day is an initiative by the Union for International Cancer Control (UICC) and their theme for 2025-2027 is ‘United by Unique Places People at the Centre of Care and their Stories at the Heart of the Conversation.’
Feb 4, 2026, I am honored to join my dear friend Noha Soror to moderate the webinar hosted by American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) and Ain Shams University – ‘Advancing Cancer Care through Professional Development.’
The Webinar itself is unique as the concept and idea has originated from Radwa Yassin, in Egypt. This is a textbook example of how ASCO transforms people and enhances professional development that leads to not only an individual’s growth but also helps educated and bring professionals together all across the world.
Thanks so much for having me on the webinar with such brilliant speakers and panelists – I am truly humbled.
As always, no initiative is possible without the tireless efforts of ASCO Staff. Thanks so much, your work brings tangible changes in cancer care and people’s lives and careers: Jessica Williams, Sarah Bachmann, Douglas Pyle.”
