Over the past two years, the AACR’s Annual Meeting had to take place in virtual formats only. This year’s meeting will now finally bring together international participants on-site in New Orleans, USA and additionally on a virtual platform in light of the most important annual meeting in the field of cancer research worldwide.

As part of the initiative “Research in Germany”, the DFG will provide comprehensive information on the German research landscape in the field of cancer research and on funding opportunities for researchers of all career levels together with further funding organisations as well as with the German Cancer Research Center (DKFZ), the Cluster of Excellence “Image-guided and Functionally Instructed Tumor Therapies“ (iFIT) and the Fraunhofer Institute for Toxicology and Experimental Medicine (ITEM).

Visit us at the following information and networking events at the „AACR Annual Meeting 2022“:
