NCORP Annual Meeting
Event Date: August 25, 2025 NIH Campus and Virtually
The National Cancer Institute (NCI) Community Oncology Research Program (NCORP) Annual Meeting will be an in-person meeting, with a non-interactive virtual option. NCORP is an NCI-supported network that brings cancer treatment, prevention, control, and cancer care delivery research (CCDR) trials to people in their communities. The goal of the 2025 NCORP Annual Meeting is to bring together NCORP principal investigators, administrators, research staff, and extramural and NCI stakeholders who contribute to the overall goal of providing access to cancer research studies in the community setting. The meeting will provide a forum for the exchange of information about the implementation, challenges, and successes of this community-based research network. The meeting will include interactive breakout sessions to address a broad scope of NCORP-related topics.
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.

Science-Based Non-Academic Careers
Event Date: September 10, 2025 Virtual Event
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
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.

Event Date: September 11, 2025 Virtual Event
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.
13th Annual Symposium on Global Cancer Research
Event Date: September 16, 2025 Virtual Event
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
Event Date: September 23, 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.
Transformative Microsystems for Cancer Diagnosis, Treatment Monitoring, and Clinical Integration
Event Date: September 23, 2025 Virtual
