Invitation

It is my great pleasure to welcome you to the 1st CCHE 57357 Scientific Conference.  I have been strongly committed to research and science from my early days as Minister of Education.  As Speaker of the Egyptian Parliament and Vice President of the Children’s Cancer Hospital Egypt Foundation I believe that research is the key to the improvement of society and that embracing science as an integral part of all professions is crucial to development.   Society will only progress with the pursuit of knowledge through research and evidence based practice in all disciplines and collaboration among nations for the advancement of mankind.  I thank the eminent physician scientists who are presenting at this conference to further your knowledge and for demonstrating how sharing knowledge and expertise about research, science and clinical issues will enable us all to work towards a vision of life free from the threat of cancer for all children.                                                                               Dr. Ahmed Fathy Sorour                                                                                                                                           Speaker of Egyptian Parliament                                                                                                                                                              Vice President of CCHF Board of Trustees,                                                                                                                                                           President of CCHF Executive Committee
