Research Symposium

Launched in 2016, CCF annually hosts the one-day CCF Research Symposium. The brainchild of CCF’s Scientific Advisory Board Chair Jeffrey Toretsky, M.D., the CCF Research Symposium puts forth the belief that small local research dialogue will go a long way toward substantial research collaboration. Regional experts (including nurses, doctors, therapists, etc.), advocates, and trainees have shared research and continue to advance the treatment of childhood cancer.

SAVE THE DATE: The 4th Annual CCF Research Symposium will be held June 5, 2019. We are currently accepting abstracts for participation in the Symposium. Download guidelines (PDF)

The 3rd Annual CCF Research Symposium “Today’s Research to Tomorrow’s Clinical Trials” took place on June 6, 2018.

 Highlights, photos, and videos of the day can be found on the 2018 Symposium page.
