Dear Delegates and Colleagues,

It is my great pleasure to welcome you to the Emirates Oncology Conference 2026, taking place from 13 to 15 November 2026 at Conrad Etihad Towers in Abu Dhabi.

Guided by this year’s theme, “Translating Innovation into Integrated Cancer Care,” EOC 2026 offers three days of focused learning, thoughtful dialogue, and connection across the cancer-care community.

The programme encompasses plenary and specialty sessions across nursing, haematology, pharmacy, breast cancer, palliative medicine, genitourinary oncology, allied health, radiation medicine, head and neck cancer, gynaecologic oncology, lung cancer, gastrointestinal oncology, paediatric oncology, neuro-oncology, oral abstracts, and clinical updates. Panel discussions, partner symposia, sponsored workshops, and networking breaks provide further opportunities to exchange ideas and experience.

I encourage you to make the most of the programme, engage with colleagues across disciplines, and contribute your perspective to the conversations that can advance more integrated approaches to cancer care.

Thank you for joining us in Abu Dhabi. I wish you a rewarding, stimulating, and memorable EOC 2026.

Warm regards,

Dr. Khalid Saeed Balaraj
Chair, Emirates Oncology Conference 2026
