Event Summary

What Each Event Covers

SSO 2027 Annual Meeting

The flagship meeting runs March 18–20, 2027, in Washington, D.C. According to the SSO listing, the program will include new educational sessions, disease site–specific content, dedicated programming for advanced practice providers, residents, and fellows, friendly competition, and expanded networking opportunities. This is the event to plan around if you want the broadest mix of clinical content and trainee-focused sessions.

Advanced Cancer Therapies 2027

Held February 13–15, 2027, at The Scott Resort & Spa in Scottsdale, AZ, this meeting is described as a comprehensive forum to promote research, development, and application of advanced cancer therapies, with education and information exchange among professionals as its focus. It suits attendees whose work centers on advanced therapy research and application rather than general surgical practice.

Fellows Institute 2026

This annual educational program runs November 30–December 2, 2026, in Houston, TX. It is co-sponsored by the Americas Hepato-Pancreato-Biliary Association (AHPBA) and the American Society of Breast Surgeons (ASBrS), and the SSO listing notes that it promotes professional collegial relationships among fellows. It is aimed at fellows rather than practicing surgeons seeking broad annual-meeting content.

How to Use This for Planning

• Match the event to your role: fellows should look first at the Fellows Institute; advanced-therapy researchers at Advanced Cancer Therapies; anyone wanting the full program at the Annual Meeting.
• Note the sequence: the three events fall in a single cycle—late 2026 for the Fellows Institute, then February and March 2027 for the other two.
• Verify before committing: the homepage gives dates and venues but not registration fees, deadlines, or housing. Open each event's "Learn More" link on surgonc.org for those details.
• Watch for updates: the SSO news section on the same page announces partnerships and new programs (for example, an IRCAD North America partnership for hands-on education), which can affect what is offered at upcoming meetings.

The SSO describes itself as the premier organization for surgeons and health care providers dedicated to advancing the science and treatment of cancer, and its events are the main channel for that education and collaboration.
