Second Working Day
The Working Day unites specialists around the globe to develop multicenter, international collaboration in ocular oncology. Since its inception, two working days have been held. The Second Working Day was integrated with the ISOO 2017 meeting in Sydney, Australia. It took place on March 24th at the International Convention Centre in Sydney. The day focused on ongoing initiatives including International Medical Evidence (WD-ME) coordinated by Bita Esmaeli, MD; Retinoblastoma Fellowships (WD-RBF) led by Ashwin Mallipatna, MD; Quality Assurance (WD-QA) coordinated by Tero Kivelä, MD; and Surgical Standards (WD-SS) led by Santosh Honavar, MD.
These initiatives currently involve over 100 eye cancer specialists from four continents. The second working day provided an opportunity to work together, face-to-face answering those questions that require consensus. We shared our knowledge and experience to help our subspecialty move forward into the mainstream of oncologic care, with a focus on creating evidence-based medicine, educational programs, outreach to the underserved, and multicenter quality assurance.
