APHON 51st Annual Conference and Exhibition

September 29–October 1, 2027 
Pasadena, California

Join us in Pasadena for APHON’s 51st Annual Conference & Exhibit held at the Pasadena Convention Center. Together, we will bring Heart & Science in Action to life through meaningful connections, fresh ideas, and inspiration that advance pediatric hematology/oncology nursing.

Heart & Science in Action  

This year, our conference takes place in Pasadena, California, with the theme Heart & Science in Action—celebrating the powerful intersection of compassion, research, and pediatric care. Inspired by Pasadena’s rich artistic and architectural history, the theme uses light and stained glass as a metaphor for the many facets of pediatric hematology/oncology nursing coming together as one. Like individual pieces of glass forming a greater whole, clinical expertise, scientific discovery, compassion, and imagination unite to illuminate the path forward for patients, families, and the professionals who care for them.
