How will the conference run?

You told us that you wanted greater opportunities for collaboration, and we heard you! This year’s Early Career Researchers’ Conference will be run as a Zoom Meeting. You’ll be able to switch on your cameras and microphones for post talk discussions, message other researchers, and chat in the breakout rooms. 

Target audience

Scientists in the early phase of their career who want to develop a career in cancer research. The programme is tailored for scientists in the process of starting their independent path, as well as for researchers engaging with the clinical and industrial applications of their work.
