Overview
It is with great delight that we wish to announce that we are holding another Royal Marsden meeting on “Updates in Management of Thyroid Cancer”, this time in a virtual format due to the on going pandemic. The event will be hosted on the Royal College of Physicians, London Virtual platform on Tuesday 9th March 2021. The aim of this meeting is to provide an update on what is new, clinically relevant and indeed controversial in the management of patients with thyroid cancer. We have selected what we believe to be some of the most important current issues for discussion and we have asked experts from the UK and distinguished guest speakers from abroad. We hope to stimulate in depth discussions on each topic with ample opportunity provided to ask questions and to express your own views.
The meeting is open to all professionals involved in the challenge of caring for patients with thyroid cancer including or in particular clinicians and senior nurses. We very much hope that you will be able to join us for this meeting.

 A lot has happened this year, with changes to the committee membership roles and not forgetting the ongoing Covid19 pandemic!

Whilst the BAHNON team are committed to providing support and up-to-date advice to its members, this has been very challenging since the beginning of the year, with most of us tied up with our primary clinical roles.

What we do know is that we hope to try and update the website further with more content over the course of the year and try to figure out how we can arrange our next conference safely in 2022.

As always, you can email us for any enquires or sharing of best practice. Or request to join our Facebook page for an even easier way to network and stay in touch.

Ian Salmon, BAHNON Secretary.
