Welcome Letter 

Dear Colleagues,

It gives us great pleasure to invite you to participate in the International Symposium on Supportive Care in Cancer, taking place in Berlin, Germany on June 27-29, 2013.

We have created a scientific program that focuses on new developments and challenges in supportive care, including topics of global interest and regional development.
Supportive care makes excellent cancer care possible and is itself supported by excellent science as we strive to enhance the lives of people on the cancer journey, at whatever stage they may find themselves.
The value of supportive care in cancer is increasingly being recognized, and the annual International Symposium is a wonderful place to learn, teach, communicate, network and share in the process of enhancing knowledge of supportive care and improving cancer care outcomes.

The Symposium will include discussion of methods to minimize cancer-induced side effects, the symptoms and complications of cancer treatment, and psychosocial issues facing cancer patients and their families.

We look forward to welcoming you to the beautiful city of Berlin! A city that never sleeps. Berlin mirrors the most important recent political developments in the western world which have transformed it into a truly international city with extraordinary architecture, uniting historical buildings with contemporary design.
Berlin´s vivid, young and experimental spirit has attracted an active art scene which can be witnessed in numerous exhibitions. These contrast beautifully with the great art and cultural treasures which are exhibited in the famous Museumsinsel (Museum island), as well as in almost one hundred museums and cultural sites all over Berlin.
The meeting will take place at the Hotel Intercontinental in the heart of the city. You will have the opportunity to enjoy the next sittings scientific conference in a rich cultural and historical city.

With Best Wishes,

Petra Feyer, Berlin, Germany
Petra Ortner, Munich, Germany
