CRANBURY, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--OncLive is pleased to announce it has partnered with The Ruesch Center for the Cure of Gastrointestinal (GI) Cancers to host the 11th Annual Ruesch Center Symposium Nov. 20-21.

We are honored to be able to work with The Ruesch Center to help transition their annual symposium into a virtual, interactive learning experience during this uncertain time, said Mike Hennessy Jr., president and CEO of MJH Life Sciences, the parent company of OncLive. The Ruesch Center is part of our exclusive strategic alliance partnership program, and this is a great example of how we can use our state-of-the-art studio to still deliver critical information to the gastrointestinal cancer community.

The educational symposium brings together clinicians, researchers, patients, caregivers, policymakers and industry representatives to network and debate critical issues related to GI cancers. Throughout the two-day virtual meeting, expert speakers will participate in three educational sessions addressing topics such as innovations in therapeutics, cancer genetics and targeted therapies, nuclear imaging and therapy for neuroendocrine tumors, and precision medicine.

The sessions include the following:

As a special highlight, the symposium will offer access to watch the 2020 Luminary Awards in GI Cancers ceremony. The five honorees, Richard M. Goldberg, M.D.; Gayle S. Jameson, MSN, RN, ACNP-BC, AOCN; Stacie C. Lindsey; Tyvin Rich, M.D., FACR; and Diane M. Simeone, M.D., will be presented with their awards and honored for their dedication to improving care for patients and families who are affected by GI cancers.

Finding more cures for GI cancer will only come through innovative research, and we are so proud to be featuring both the most up-to-date science and the projects of tomorrow. And as a bonus, we will be premiering our new POWER program, a short course in precision medicine to close our knowledge gaps in this rapidly evolving field, said John L. Marshall, M.D., director, The Ruesch Center for the Cure of GI Cancers.

This symposium has been approved for up to 11 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits and ANCC contact hours.
