Learning Institute Call for Participants
The BioCanRx-Cancer Stakeholder Alliance Learning Institute is seeking participants for our 2025 program! In this 7th year of the Learning Institute, we will be bringing together leaders from oncology patient communities and academic trainees from the immunotherapy research community to engage in interactive and collaborative knowledge exchange activities at the Summit for Cancer Immunotherapy, April 6-8, 2025 in Toronto ON.
Academic and Patient Scholars will use their unique perspectives and knowledge in discussions about advances in immuno-oncology research and the importance of the engagement of patients and the public. Participants will build networks with each other and the larger community to deepen their understanding of knowledge translation and the importance of strong patient-researcher partnerships and dialogue.
We are looking for a range of individuals, including those with a strong interest who are new to patient engagement and those who are actively involved with the broader cancer research or advocacy community. If you are interested in taking part in the Learning Institute, click here for more information on the program and requirements.
Interested participants are asked to please complete and submit the application form by November 13th, 2024, 11:59 pm EST.
