Oncology: Conference Officer

Hi, my name is Ryhan and I am current 3rd year medical student hoping to become the next Oncology Conference Officer!

Having attended the Oncology conference 2022, I was fascinated by the vast nature of cancer and the cutting-edge technology that is at the forefront of the field. Since then, my love for oncology has grown, highlighted as I am lucky enough to be part of the British Oncological Society’s mentorship program for undergraduates since early 2023. This has enabled me to have a vast array of contacts who are leading surgical innovation regarding oncology, many of whom would be willing to contribute to the success of the next Oncology Society’s Surgical Conference.

I have a clear passion for oncology and I am keen to put the maximum amount of work into making next years conference an even bigger success. Conferences are a great way to help students get a taste of the speciality as well as the cutting-edge innovation that is floating around in the medical community.
