Symposium Mammographicum is a registered charity founded in 1979. Its principal aims are ‘to stimulate and support research and disseminate knowledge about the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of breast disease’. We run biennial conferences around the UK. The 20th Symposium will be held at the Harrogate Conference Centre from Sunday 21 to Tuesday 23 June 2020. The conference reflects the multi-disciplinary nature of breast diagnosis and care, and is complemented by a technical exhibition and workshops.  

Symposium Mammographicum also runs Award and Bursary schemes to assist clinicians to carry out research, attend the conference or undertake an educational clinical placement.
