Moffitt Cancer Center Showcases Top Science
Every year, the American Association for Cancer Research Annual Meeting brings scientists from around the world together to highlight the latest discoveries across the spectrum of cancer research. These advances span population science and cancer prevention, basic science and cancer biology, translational science and clinical trials, and survivorship and advocacy. The work being done to foster cancer research, treatment and prevention takes center stage.
After going virtual during the COVID-19 pandemic, the world’s largest meeting dedicated to cancer research is convening in New Orleans while also offering a virtual platform. Thousands of presentations, educational sessions and workshops will be highlighted.
Moffitt Cancer Center has more than 60 presentations during this year’s annual meeting. The studies cover a variety of science including adaptive therapy improving treatment for prostate cancer, outcomes for younger colorectal cancer patients, radiomics to help guide ovarian cancer treatment decisions, and ways to better meet the needs of LGBT patients.
