Calling all cancer researchers and health care professionals – Abstract submission for the 56th IACR Annual Conference is now open

The 2020 Irish Association for Cancer Research (IACR) annual conference will be held in the Galway Bay Hotel Wednesday 26 - Friday 28 February 2020. Registration and abstract submission is now open.

The next IACR Annual Conference is a particularly special event. The 56th conference will be a joint EACR/IACR event welcoming researchers from across Europe. Experts across the research continuum will be present to share their expertise in areas such as genomics, radiation oncology, epidemiology, and immunology.

In addition to this, the 56th IACR will also, for the first time, host a parallel IACR track on “Improving Cancer Care and Outcomes” to highlight the importance of Social, Nursing, and Allied Health Sciences research in the lives of people with cancer. The conference will host dedicated parallel sessions in Palliative and End of Life Care; Nutrition and Exercise; Psycho-Oncology and Patient-Reported Outcome Measures.

This is a fantastic opportunity for multidisciplinary researchers and health care professionals at any stage of their career. There are numerous benefits of attending:

• Learn about the most up-to-date cancer research from international experts in the field;
• Network and collaborate with like-minded and multidisciplinary researchers and health-care professionals;
• Disseminate your research findings to the most impactful and relevant audience;
• Be part of an exciting new initiative of the IACR
