This workshop will introduce the full spectrum of translational cancer research to late-stage Ph.D. candidates, early-career Ph.D.s, and established Ph.D.s in transition to translational research. The weeklong immersion course will feature: 1) didactic lectures; 2) offsite interactive visits to radiology and pathobiology departments, an IRB session, and outpatient cancer treatment clinics; and 3) small group discussion sessions. The extensive facilities of the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute/Harvard Cancer Center will serve as the primary teaching venue for the “real world” offsite interactive visits. Participants will gain insights into clinical research and networking opportunities to foster their transition into the world of translational cancer research. Please visit www.aacr.org/workshops for details.
