Breast Cancer Conference 2011
The VBCRC has established a tradition of national breast cancer conferences held every few years.
Unfortunately, the next Australian Breast Cancer Conference planned for 13 & 14 October 2011 has had to be postponed. New plans will be posted on this website as soon as possible but preliminary interest can still be registered by email to vbcrc@cancervic.org.au
