This symposium, organised by the UCL Cancer Domain, invites UCL's broad community to assemble for the first time at scale to consider challenges and opportunities in cancer research, prevention and treatment, from biological, clinical, technical, economic and societal perspectives. The event showcases our distinctive multidisciplinary expertise and features interactive discussion sessions with our speakers and panels. Talks are scheduled on the following themes:
- Cancer evolution: can we beat Nature?
- Cancer detection: the earlier the better?
- The cancer treatment revolution and how we afford it
We are delighted to announce that Professor Charles Swanton (UCL Cancer Institute and Francis Crick Institute) and Professor Mariana Mazzucato (UCL Institute for Innovation and Public Purpose) will deliver the keynote lectures at this event.
