The Institutional Biosafety Committee at Fox Chase (IBC) meets regularly. These meetings are open to the public.

Laryngectomy is a surgical procedure to remove the larynx (voice box), often because of cancer. “The Speakeezy Club of Delaware Valley” is a laryngectomy support group that meets the fourth Thursday of every month (except for November and December, when it meets on the second Thursday of the month). The group provides information, education, and psychosocial support to patients and their families. Support is provided by a social worker and a speech-language pathologist.
