FLASCO / MSL/Scientific Presentation Opportunity

The Florida Society of Clinical Oncology Society seeks abstracts on hematology/oncology topics to share knowledge during the Bi-Annual Meetings. Physicians, nurses, mid-level providers, ancillary health care providers (psychologists, physical therapists, etc.), administrators, pharmacists, and post-graduate trainees (fellows, residents) are eligible to submit abstracts. Abstracts previously submitted to ASCO, ASH, etc. are acceptable. FLASCO reserves the right to review and accept submissions

Abstracts are due by April 4, 2018 and will be judged solely on the data submitted. Statements such as “further data will be presented” are strongly discouraged and will decrease the likelihood that the abstract will be selected for presentation.
