The 31st Annual Multidisciplinary Symposium on Breast Disease
Dear Colleagues:
This will be our 31st YEAR of the Annual Multidisciplinary Symposium on Breast Disease, which will take place February 13-15, 2026, at The Ritz-Carlton Hotel in Amelia Island, Florida.
For the past 30 years, the symposium has provided a unique educational experience for those involved in breast health care. As an internationally recognized symposium, we have been fortunate to attract the most highly respected speakers to participate in the symposium every year.
The program is designed to offer plenary sessions, case presentations and panel discussions with active participation of the audience. The speakers are recognized authorities in their specialties, with experience in presenting the most controversial aspects surrounding the spectrum of benign, premalignant and malignant breast lesions.
In addition, we are fortunate to have OLUFUNMILAYO OLOPADE, MD to serve as this year’s Keynote Speaker. Dr. Olopade is a Walter L. Palmer Distinguished Service Professor of Medicine and Director, Center for Clinical Cancer Genetics and Global Health at the University of Chicago Medicine. She is an expert in cancer risk assessment and individualized treatment for the most aggressive forms of breast cancer, having developed novel management strategies based on an understanding of the altered genes in individual patients. Dr. Olopade is internationally renowned for her expertise in breast cancer, and her research has advanced early detection, treatment and prevention of breast cancer in women at high risk for the disease. She has received numerous honors and awards including honorary degrees from six universities and a 2005 MacArthur Fellowship (“Genius grant”) for translating findings on the molecular genetics of breast cancer in African and African-America women into innovative clinical practices in the United States and abroad.
As always, this year’s symposium will take place at one of the most beautiful resort locations in Florida. Please join us at our 31st Symposium.
We look forward to seeing you February 13-15, 2026!
