The series, which will be held Oct. 14, 21, and 28, from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. (CDT), will be broadcast live via satellite from the UNMC campus in Omaha, to 30 communities.<\/div>\n<div>&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div>During the series, participants will learn about improvements in cancer diagnosis, treatment, and symptom management, as well as the latest research and advances in women&rsquo;s cancers. Ken Cowan, M.D., Ph.D., director of the UNMC Eppley Cancer Center and a breast cancer physician, will kick off the series on the first evening.<\/div>\n<div>&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div>In Omaha, speakers will present on Oct. 14 and 21, in the UNMC Durham Research Center, Suzanne &amp; Walter Scott Auditorium, located at Emile St. and Durham Research Plaza (formerly 45<sup>th<\/sup> St.).

For the last decade, there&rsquo;s been an improvement of more than 12 percent in the survival of patients with cancer.<\/div>\n<div>&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div>&ldquo;Here at UNMC, scientists are leading the way in discovering new treatments, advances, and even preventive measures for the many different types of cancer that women face. This work will lead to even more effective and less toxic therapies in the future.&rdquo;<\/div>\n<div>&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div>This year, for the first time, UNMC has partnered with Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Nebraska on the series.<\/div>\n<div>&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div>&ldquo;At Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Nebraska, we are committed to delivering the health and wellness solutions people value most,&rdquo; says Dr. Bill Minier, vice president of medical policy &amp; medical director. &ldquo;We are excited to have this opportunity to work with UNMC in this education effort.
