A ThyCa conference is an educational and supportive event, with more than 80 presentations, Ask a Doctor sessions, and survivor-caregiver roundtables.
Whether you’re being tested for possible thyroid cancer, are newly diagnosed or recently treated, are a survivor of many years, or are a caregiver, friend, or health care professional, we welcome you to Orlando.

Please tell everyone you know about the conference, because word of mouth is a main way that people hear about this unique weekend. For details, registration, and hotel information, visit our web site.
