Research Symposium

Thank you to everyone who participated in the 10th Annual CCF Research Symposium. Read about highlights, see photos, and view presentation videos from the day. The videos can also be viewed as a playlist on the CCF YouTube channel.

We thank the speakers, keynote Yaël Mossé, MD of Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, the poster presenters, the CCF Scientific Advisory Board, the CCF Board of Directors, and The Kahlert Foundation for making the event available to all for no cost. CCF looks forward to the 11th Annual CCF Research Symposium tentatively scheduled for June 9, 2027.

Launched in 2016, CCF annually hosts the one-day CCF Research Symposium. The brainchild of CCF’s Scientific Advisory Board Chair Emeritus Jeffrey Toretsky, M.D., the CCF Research Symposium puts forth the belief that small local research dialogue will lead to substantial research collaboration.

Regional specialists, including nurses, doctors, therapists, advocates, and trainees, have shared research and continue to advance the treatment of childhood cancer. The CCF Research Symposium is also unique in its inclusion of presentations from cancer fighters and their families, infusing the day with compelling personal experiences.

The CCF Symposium is made possible with generous support from The Kahlert Foundation.
