WELCOME TO COHO 2026

NOVEMBER 13 & 14, 2026

Welcome

We are very pleased to announce the Conference on Hematology and Oncology (CoHO) will be taking place on November 13 & 14, 2026.

In the last year, many advancements have been made in oncology and hematology and we are eager to pursue our continued education as it is so crucial to the advancement of treatment for our patients.

Our objective is to provide high quality education and an opportunity to network with our colleagues. CoHO will focus on advancements in Hematology including; Lymphoma, CLL, and Myeloma, and in Oncology including; Breast, Lung, and GI.

Oncologists and hematologists as well as physicians in other disciplines, GPOs, residents, nurse practitioners and pharmacists, will come together in an environment where challenging cases can be discussed, and best practices shared. There will be keynote presentations on new and relevant data followed by panel discussions. At this time facilitators can present a series of interactive case discussions with audience participation. By keeping the program interactive, we will be successful in engaging the audience and enhance learning.

We hope you will be joining us for CoHO!

Sincerely,

Dr. Wendy Lam,
CoHO Chair, Burnaby Hospital Regional Cancer Centre
