Join us for our new, innovative RISE UP for Breast Cancer meeting, to be held in San Francisco from November 1-3, 2024! Visit our website (riseup.ucsf.edu) to learn more.

RISE UP (Revolutionizing Investigations to link Screening to Experimental therapeutics to Upend Prognosis) for Breast Cancer will bring together leaders across the oncologic, gynecologic, investment, scientific, biotech, policy, and advocacy spaces. It will leverage what we know about breast cancer biology, treatment, and hormonal management to better approach breast cancer prevention. The goal is to inspire people to design new ways to think about cycle control, birth control, post-partum weaning, IVF, and post-menopausal symptom management so that these interventions will reduce the risk and incidence of breast cancer. The meeting with culminate in a competition to determine the best ideas and prizes will be given. It is our hope that this meeting will spark new and exciting ways to take what we know about breast cancer and marry what we know about hormonal management in women and platform trial design to catalyze the field of prevention of breast cancer.

If you are involved in women’s health or breast cancer, you won’t want to miss this meeting!
