The future of cancer care starts with the exchange of knowledge. Members of the IGCS Scientific Program Committee gathered in Chicago to review and allocate scientific abstracts for the upcoming IGCS Annual Global Meeting—and took a moment to join the #Jump4June challenge. Every abstract selected represents new research, new ideas, and new opportunities to improve care for women affected by gynecologic cancers around the world. Today, we're jumping for uterine cancer awareness. Every day, we're working to advance the science that advances care. June is Uterine Cancer Awareness Month. Now in its fourth year, this global campaign was initiated by IGCS and IGCANetwork and is sustained by the people working every day to improve women's cancer care—clinicians, researchers, advocates, survivors, and supporters worldwide. Join the movement. #Jump4June #UCAM igcs.org/ucam Early registration rates for the IGCS Annual Global Meeting are in effect through June 30. This UCAM, make your plans to join us in Montreal! igcsmeeting.com #IGCS2026 #IGCSMontreal

🚨Uterine cancer now accounts for more gynecologic cancer deaths than any other gynecologic malignancy in the U.S., with over 68,000 new cases and 14,450 deaths projected for 2026. ‼️Incidence and mortality rates continue to rise. ✅Early recognition of symptoms — including abnormal uterine bleeding and pelvic pain — remains critical to improving outcomes. Screening, timely referral, and patient education save lives. #GynecologicOncology #EndometrialCancer #UterineCancer #WomensHealth #SGO2026
