Lehman, III, MD, and Kimberly Reed, RN, CPN, of Nemours duPont Pediatrics, will discuss the successful strategies implemented in a small clinic in rural southern Delaware to achieve an 81% HPV vaccine series completion rate for 13 to 15 year-old patients. Following this talk will be informal peer-to-peer sharing about opportunities and challenges for HPV vaccination programs on the national, state or local level. Come share your insights about what makes a strong program and how to make a program stronger. Open to all.

Evidence, Opinion, and Fact in Cancer Screening and Prevention
When it comes to cancer screening or prevention, the evidence is often uncertain. This workshop will discuss why there are still gaps in the evidence and will demonstrate how to distinguish opinion from fact when filling in the gaps, using case studies from the professional and popular press. Dr. Etzioni will address overdiagnosis, recent guidelines on prostate and colorectal cancer, clinical-trial results on ovarian cancer screening, and obesity as a cancer risk. She will also ask: Is the circulating DNA test ready for prime time?
