Overview
The 2022 Annual Meeting of the NCI Cohort Consortium was held virtually on November 1st and November 2nd. The meeting was sponsored by the Division of Cancer Control and Population Sciences (Epidemiology and Genomics Research Program) and the Division of Cancer Epidemiology and Genetics of the National Cancer Institute (NCI), with a goal to bring together consortium researchers to discuss emerging science, scientific progress of consortium projects and groups, gaps and opportunities for collaboration across studies, and ideas for new scientific projects in the consortium.
The main meeting was organized into two half-days on November 1st, 8:00 AM - 11:45 AM (ET) and November 2nd, 1:00 PM - 5:00 PM (ET). See the meeting Agenda for more details. There will also be Project group meetings held in September and October before the main meeting. See the meeting schedule under Project Group Meetings.
