The Bay Area Breast Cancer Forum continues under the direction of Hope Rugo, MD. It is a monthly gathering of health care providers, researchers, patients, patient advocates, friends, and families. Topics are varied, but the emphasis is on clinical trials and research. The meetings take place on Wednesday evenings from 6:00 to 7:30 pm, approximately every other month. Meetings are held on the 3rd floor of the UCSF Helen Diller Family Comprehensive Cancer Center located at 1600 Divisadero St in San Francisco. A light dinner is served. For more information, please contact Lauren Metzroth at 415-885-7213 or lauren.metzroth@ucsfmedctr.org.
