The COSA Annual Scientific Meeting is the leading gathering of cancer health professionals in our region. We welcome clinicians and researchers working in cancer from medical and radiation oncology, surgery, nursing, pharmacy, and allied health.

In 2012, COSA is excited to be partnering with the International Psycho-Oncology Society (IPOS) and their Australian partners Cancer Council Queensland, POCOG (Psycho-Oncology Cooperative Research Group) and OZPOS (COSA’s Psycho-Oncology Group).

This partnership will provide bring together two important meetings and allow each society’s members to participate in both meetings.

The focus for the meetings will be psycho-oncology, and COSA's disease theme will be skin cancer and melanoma.
