UBM Medica's ONCOLOGY and Society for Integrative Oncology (SIO) Announce Partnership

NORWALK, Conn., July 31, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- UBM Medica, a leading provider of educational resources to healthcare professionals, announced today a partnership with the Society for Integrative Oncology (SIO).

Through this partnership, SIO will gain significant reach into the cancer-treating community through UBM Medica's oncology distribution channels - the ONCOLOGY journal and CancerNetwork.com - allowing members of SIO greater access to information impacting the field of oncology as well as their day-to-day practice.

In turn, with the addition of one of SIO's key thought leaders to its respected editorial advisory board, the ONCOLOGY journal will be able to provide more relevant integrative oncology information to its readership, furthering SIO's mission to advance evidence-based, comprehensive, integrative healthcare to improve the lives of people affected by cancer.

"We are very excited to enter in to this partnership with SIO, which will not only allow the ONCOLOGY journal to offer a greater breadth of information on integrative oncology, but it will increase SIO's visibility and impact in the oncology field," said Nora Ray, Editorial Director of Oncology at UBM Medica. "This benefits the members of SIO and ONCOLOGY's readership alike."
