19th International Aek Cancer Congress 2017

The biennial International AEK Cancer Congress is the central meeting for cancer researchers from Germany and neighbouring countries at all stages of their careers.

The AEK Cancer Congress 2017 is a joint event of AEK (Division of Experimental Cancer Research) and the DFG Research Unit 2314 "Targeting therapeutic windows in essential cellular processes for tumor therapy".

The meeting will build on the success of the previous congresses with the participation of renowned international and national Keynote and Plenary speakers stimulating scientific exchange on a very high level. The financial support provided by the German Cancer Society (Deutsche Krebsgesellschaft), the German Cancer Aid (Deutsche Krebshilfe) and the German Research Foundation (Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft), enables to assemble such a top-ranking scientific program.

The Plenary Symposia will provide ample time for vivid discussions. Each Symposium will give space for oral presentations which will be selected from the submitted abstracts. Two poster sessions positioned at the heart of the congress program offer the chance for young scientists and students to present and discuss their work to the cancer science community. Notably, the best posters will be awarded by poster prizes. Also, on the occasion of the AEK Cancer Congress the best colleagues will receive the prestigious German Cancer Awards 2015 for experimental, translational and clinical cancer research, respectively.

The abstract submission and registration open in fall 2016.

The social get-together will be on 2nd March 2017.
