The upcoming NCI CAP-IT Summit is set to convene a diverse mix of participants, including senior leaders, experts, and emerging talents such as junior investigators and trainees, all dedicated to the fields of cancer prevention and interception.
During the summit, presenters will thoroughly assess the present landscape of both clinical and preclinical research in this domain and highlight the network’s scientific accomplishments. A special panel of patient advocates will reflect on the network’s scientific contributions, and on improving outreach to patient population. The summit will summarize critical challenges and opportunities that could pave the way for the clinical application of precision methods in cancer prevention and interception.
