SYMPOSIA
An uninterrupted series for more than 35 years of annual scientific conferences for researchers and clinicians focused on hot topics of cancer science. Aimed to promote interaction among researchers working at the cutting edge of basic oncological sciences, but also to offer young scientists the possibility of listening, learning, and discussing with the major experts in the field.
Promoted by Dr. Enrico Mihich, past President of the AACR and the architect of the agreement between the Pezcoller Foundation and the AACR in 1997.
Dr. Mihich and Dr. David Livingston have been Chairman of the Symposia for many years, with the support of the Scientific Standing Committee composed of internationally recognized leading scientists in the cancer fields.
From 2022, the Nobel Laureate Dr. William G. Kaelin is the Chairman of the Symposia.
