DF/HCC Brief Updates on Obesity, Metabolism, and Cancer

September 21st, 2022 @ 2:30 pm - 5:30 pm

The Dana-Farber/Harvard Cancer Center (DF/HCC) Population Science Programs host “Brief Updates” series by inviting members of the scientific community to share advancements, build new collaborations, promote active communication, and show synergy across thematic areas.

Our next “Brief Updates” will focus on the topic of Obesity, Metabolism, and Cancer. We will feature an exciting panel discussion with short talks by Dr. Edward Giovannucci (HSPH), Dr. Lewis Cantley (DFCI), Dr. Fatima Stanford (MGH), and Dr. Christina Dieli-Conwright (DFCI) followed by moderated discussion. The panel will be followed by rounds of lightning talks from early-career investigators showcasing their recent research as well as thematic group discussions. We invite students, post-docs, residents, clinical fellows, and other early career investigators across the DF/HCC institutions to submit abstracts for consideration as oral presentations. We hope this event will provide a valuable opportunity for researchers in the population health sciences to share their discoveries and connect across disciplines.

This half-day event will be held at the Smith 308/309 at Dana-Faber Cancer Institute and will be a hybrid event. Speakers are encouraged to participate in person.
