In the past, we have held in-person Patient Education Events (previously Regional Patient Meetings) in Salt Lake City and San Francisco. The format of these events is similar to that of our annual September DTRF Annual Patient Meeting where those experienced in the field of desmoid tumors present to local patient and caregiver community members.
Going forward, we hope to host other Patient Education Events in the U.S. to complement our annual meeting. If you are interested in either hosting or sponsoring a regional patient meeting, please contact us at info@dtrf.org.
