About this Event
The objective of the day is to ensure all clinicians across the multi-disciplinary team that may encounter, diagnose or treat patients with BPCs have an up-to-date understanding of all aspects of care of this rare disease entity. The day will also aim to highlight the key unmet needs for patients diagnosed with BPCs and set out the key priorities to improve care in the future. The event will also provide an unprecedented networking and collaboration opportunity across the UK to begin to address these key future priorities.
