Carcinoid & Neuroendocrine Tumor Society

An association of patients, caregivers and physicians, promoting better understanding of carcinoid and neuroendocrine cancer,
a relatively rare disease which is poorly understood and is often misdiagnosed.

Our Events CNETS organises free seminars, group meetups and other events to help raise awareness about carcinoid and nueurondocrine disease. We are in the early planning stages for a major regional NETs conference, which will hopefully be held in Singapore in late 2009 or early 2010. If you were not able to attend our events in March and April, you are welcome to review the video recordings which are posted here (refer to column at the right).

Events by Other Organisations If you are able to travel, there are a number of international conferences you may consider attending. Conferences are an invaluable means for you to better understand your treatment options and to meet other folks facing similar choices. Generally these event are open to patients, family caregivers and physicians. Physician-only conferences will be noted as such. Most organisers charge a very reasonable entrance fee or donation request to supplement any sponsorship support they may have.
