“Yesterday, it was a true privilege to welcome my dear friend Dr. Paolo Tarantino from Dana-Farber Cancer Institute to the Burjeel Cancer Institute as part of our Visiting Professors and Scientists lecture Program.
Dr. Tarantino delivered an outstanding lecture on the latest advances in HER2-positive advanced breast cancer, sharing invaluable insights with our team.
We enjoyed a comprehensive tour of BCI, including the Bone Marrow Transplant Unit and the Breast Cancer Centre, followed by productive discussions on future collaborative opportunities.
I was delighted to present Dr. Tarantino with a copy of our book ‘Cancer in the UAE’ as a token of appreciation.
We look forward to further strengthening our successful collaboration with our esteemed colleagues at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute.”
