Dear Colleagues and Friends, On behalf of the organizing committee we are delighted to welcome and invite you for the "18th Annual Conference of the Women's Cancer Initiative - Tata Memorial Hospital" to be held from 8th - 11th October 2020, Tata Memorial Centre, Mumbai. The theme of this conference is distinct from all the past meetings that we’ve had. This year we would focus on data from across Asia.

The theme of this conference is ‘Breast Oncology–Asian reflections’. In this meeting, we would be covering original abstracts and clinical outcomes data from centres across Asia. The focus on the clinical outcomes would provide a unique opportunity to understand the challenges and successes for our patients in a real-world setting. This conference will be a step towards creating a platform for path-breaking Asian data to be collated and presented. This year we will invite clinicians and researchers across Asia who have presented their work in national and international forums. The data showcased will present us with the unique opportunity for collaboration with each other on several future projects and aid in furthering research objectives from the Asian sub-continent. We aim to showcase robust data assuring audience engagement and fruitful discussions where participants will leave with confidence on practical aspects, implications, and applications relevant to their daily practice.

We are inviting abstracts for poster & oral presentations which will give a glimpse of research in this part of the world. The WCI-TMH annual conference has been at the forefront of bringing together the best of the scientific content and as part of this year's program committee, we will put our best foot forward to make this conference worthy of your time. We look forward to your presence and collaboration to make this year's conference a grand success.

We welcome you all for this conference that intends to showcase the best practices in breast cancer.
