Program Summary

Over the course of the two-day workshop, participants will attend five didactic sessions, each followed by an interactive panel discussion, and later split into working groups tasked with refining and prioritizing key questions identified. By contributing to defining pivotal questions in cancer immune responsiveness/resistance, participants will help deepen understanding of the cancer biology that orchestrates distinct immune landscapes, and help move the field towards improved therapeutic strategies.

Intended Audience

The intended audience for this two-day workshop includes clinicians and researchers from academia, industry, government, and clinical medicines, as well as early career individuals who wish to contribute to the development of strategies to increase immune responsiveness.
