Translational Research in Clinical Oncology (TRACO)
TRACO is designed to provide an overview of general principles of cancer biology and treatment, epidemiology, genomics, precision medicine, mechanisms of resistance, use of preclinical models, and identification of novel molecular targets. Participants will have an unprecedented opportunity to learn new information, glimpse into future developments of translational research in clinical oncology and meet leaders in cancer research. The participation of NIH Postdoctoral and Clinical Fellows is encouraged.

EBV-Associated Lymphoma Consortium Annual Meeting
The purpose of the “Joint Meeting of the Kaposi’s’ Sarcoma Vaccine Development Consortium and EBV-associated Lymphoma Consortium” is to bring together the members of the consortium, their fellows who are working on this U01 project, and NCI program staff.

Science-Based Non-Academic Careers
As fellows and staff scientists at the National Cancer Institute, many of you will be exploring and choosing from various science-based career options in the future. The Office of Training and Education (OTE) in the Center for Cancer Training (CCT) is hosting weekly workshops to help participants learn about the various career opportunities that lie outside of independent academic research. Given these may include unfamiliar roles outside of traditional bench science, we have guest speakers from various science-based backgrounds to provide information and insight that will help inform decisions about potential future endeavors. For details about the course schedule, invited speakers, and program contacts, please visit the SNAC website.

Fall 2025 NCI Early Drug Development
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.

Global Cancer Research and Control Seminar Series 2025
The NCI Center for Global Health’s Global Cancer Research and Control Seminar Series (GCRCSS) features talks by researchers and cancer control experts working in global oncology. The seminars provide opportunities for discussion and collaboration around impactful and innovative work that addresses cancer morbidity and mortality worldwide.

The NCI-DOE Collaboration Symposium: Driving Cancer Research Advances with AI and HPC
Join us in person or virtually on September 15, 2025, as the NCI Center for Biomedical Informatics and Information Technology (CBIIT) hosts The NCI-DOE Collaboration: Driving Cancer Research Advances with AI and HPC Symposium, at the NCI Shady Grove Campus in Rockville, MD. The Symposium is open to all NIH federal staff and contractors.

13th Annual Symposium on Global Cancer Research
By elevating the voice of patients and providers in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), cancer research can become more responsive, locally relevant, culturally sensitive, empowering, and effective. At ASGCR 2025, we will showcase collaborative models, where those living with cancer and delivering care for those affected by cancer are active partners and contribute valuable expertise based on their lived experience.

Cancer AI Conversations
“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.

Transformative Microsystems for Cancer Diagnosis, Treatment Monitoring, and Clinical Integration
This workshop will bring together scientists, clinicians, engineers, patients, survivors, and advocates to explore cutting-edge microsystem technologies that are transforming cancer diagnostics, treatment monitoring, and disease management.

Childhood Cancer: NCI Office of Data Sharing (ODS) Inaugural Data Jamboree
Come and join us at the NCI's Office of Data Sharing (ODS) on September 29-30. The overall goal of this 1.5-day in-person event is to increase the visibility of a variety of childhood cancer datasets, promote interdisciplinary collaborations, and accelerate scientific innovation through enhanced data sharing and use, This ODS inaugural event will focus on solving specific problems in childhood cancer.

NCI's Office of Data Sharing Annual Symposium
Sept. 30th - Oct. 1st. A foundational shift to a culture of broad data sharing and collaborative science holds immense promise for more rapid advances in cancer research. NCI’s Office of Data Sharing will bring together experts and stakeholders including scientists, clinicians, policymakers, patients, advocates and trainees across government, academia and industry to learn from one another and explore ways to maximize the benefits of these efforts.

CPTAC Scientific Symposium Public
The National Cancer Institute’s Office of Cancer Clinical Proteomics Research (OCCPR) and Clinical Proteomic Tumor Analysis Consortium (CPTAC) are pleased to announce the 2025 CPTAC Scientific Symposium. Join us on September 30, 2025 to learn about the most current advances in the field of cancer proteogenomics and cancer research by our CPTAC investigators. While this meeting is in-person for CPTAC consortium and NIH participants, only virtual option is available for public attendees.
