Subject: Invitation for your trainees to submit an application: AACR Translational Cancer Research for Basic Scientists Workshop

[cid:ii_19d2abe642a4ce8e98]

Dear Colleague,

As someone who has previously recommended a trainee for the AACR Workshop on Translational Cancer Research for Basic Scientists, we're delighted to extend a special invitation for your current trainees to apply for this year's program. Applications are due by May 7.

This year's workshop, led by Course Directors Ryan B. Corcoran, George D. Demetri, and Elaine R. Mardis, will be held October 4-8, 2026, at Le Meridien Cambridge in Cambridge, Massachusetts, just outside Boston.

While the 2026 agenda is still being finalized, you and your trainees can explore the scope of the course by reviewing the 2025 sample program<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/aacr.ent.box.com/s/3swrtcvq2wjvm52d7d9d575mzr8acfsw__;!!FjuHKAHQs5udqho!IoW9KAHmEyrPK0kumj7ZdYvTtoUBfYLV2sBEe_-ct3C5tk2Bt93kVEUCCVNpliwKg5pgLx7iSo1z_Ge-b2qQ$>, which provides an excellent overview of the topics typically covered.

Past participants consistently highlight the value of the workshop:

  *   "It is the single most influential workshop/conference I have attended."
  *   "My experience at the workshop will definitely inform the projects I'm putting together now, as well as my long-term career goals."
  *   "Since attending the workshop, I have become involved in companion biomarker analysis in a Phase I clinical trial... the knowledge I gained has been invaluable."
  *   "I gained a better understanding of the clinical setting, which has helped me interact more effectively with clinicians in my institution."
  *   "The information provided empowered me to ask the right questions and build new collaborative research relationships."
  *   "It helped me recognize where my work sits within the translational pipeline and inspired me to think about how basic scientists can better support clinicians in advancing cancer treatments."

The application is now open, and full instructions and requirements are available here: TCR Workshop Application<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/www.aacr.org/meeting/translational-cancer-research-for-basic-scientists-workshop/application-procedure/__;!!FjuHKAHQs5udqho!IoW9KAHmEyrPK0kumj7ZdYvTtoUBfYLV2sBEe_-ct3C5tk2Bt93kVEUCCVNpliwKg5pgLx7iSo1z_I2ppN-j$>.

Application deadline:
Thursday, May 7, 2026, at 1:00 p.m. (ET)

If you have trainees or colleagues who would benefit from this highly interactive and professionally transformative experience, please feel free to share this announcement with them. We look forward to reviewing their applications.

Sincerely,
