Teaching in Medical Education (TIME)
Event Date: July 1, 2025 In-person - NCI Campus at Bethesda or Frederick, MD
Many postdoctoral fellows are considering an academic career at a medical school. In addition to conducting research, new faculty members must learn effective teaching methodologies. This course will focus on good teaching practices, including basic strategies for developing and organizing a course. The purpose of the "Teaching in Medical Education (TIME)" course is to increase the scientist's ability to teach in medical education. The course will provide basic knowledge in teaching methods, course planning, writing a syllabus and developing examinations.
Cancer AI Conversations
Event Date: July 22, 2025 Virtual Event
“Cancer AI Conversations” are bimonthly, 1-hour virtual events featuring timely topics related to the application of artificial intelligence in cancer research. Each event features short talks from 2-4 subject matter experts offering diverse perspectives on the session topic. These talks will be followed by a moderated panel discussion.

Using the NCI Method for Measurement Error Adjustment
Event Date: August 25, 2025 Hybrid - NCI Shady Grove Campus, Rockville, MD and Virtual
Using the NCI Method for Measurement Error Adjustment is a 5-day workshop being held at the NCI Shady Grove Campus in Rockville, MD. In current practice, assessments of modifiable risk factors for cancer, like physical activity and nutrition, are subject to substantial amounts of measurement error for which simple corrections are infeasible or impossible. Ignoring these errors can lead to spurious results and incorrect conclusions about associations with cancer outcomes.

Fall 2025 NCI Early Drug Development
Event Date: September 11, 2025 Virtual
The NCI CTEP Early Drug Development Meeting is held annually to enhance communication between NCI and the network of ETCTN investigators that conduct CTEP-sponsored early phase clinical trials. The meeting is open to academic, government, and pharmaceutical clinical investigators and related health care personnel (e.g., nurses, statisticians, translational scientist, etc.) involved in CTEP funded oncology early drug development. The focus of the meeting is on prioritizing investigational agent selection and targeting, novel trial designs, and development and implementation of translational studies, as well as on new therapeutic and imaging modalities. The data presented at the meeting is considered a private communication, and the information should not be disseminated for public use.
