The Future of Cancer Prevention Research Symposium

Hosted by Cancer Rsearch UK

An event to mark the release of CRUK's prevention research strategy, and to start building the trans-disciplinary connections that the strategy requires.

Topics to be discussed include how biological knowledge-based research and mechanistic understanding could inform a new wave of more precise preventive interventions that could reduce cancer incidence equally across society.

Speakers: 

  • Catherine Elliott, Cancer Research UK
  • Kay-Tee Khaw, University of Cambridge
  • Richard Martin, University of Bristol
  • Karen Brown, University of Leicester
  • David Adams, Wellcome Sanger Institute
  • Gerard Evan, University of Cambridge

There will also be a structured workshop session where you'll be put into groups to discuss "What is needed to bridge discovery and population researchers to enable swifter translation of mechanistic insight to preventive interventions?".
