The Terry Fox Research Institute is pleased to announce the return of its scientific meeting in November 2022, with an expanded agenda and more attendees to welcome a new community of funded researchers as well as returning ones!
The theme for this year’s meeting is Cancer Research: Past, Present and Future. Our Scientific Organizing Committee is in the midst of developing the scientific program for the meeting right now!
This meeting will be at the Vancouver Convention Centre (VCC) West Nov. 3-6 (including travel dates), commencing with registration Nov. 3 (evening) and the meeting on Friday Nov. 4 and Saturday Nov. 5. There will be a tribute to TFRI’s Founding President and Scientific Director Dr. Victor Ling at a dinner celebration on the evening of Nov. 5. TFRI will follow COVID protocols in place at the time of meeting.
TFRI organizes a Scientific Meeting (SM) as an opportunity for the whole community of Terry Fox-funded researchers to get together to share ideas and to discuss their research. The meeting is by invitation only. Our meeting this year will be a two-day session consisting of several plenaries, poster presentations and rapid-fire talks as well as breakouts. We will conclude with a celebratory dinner in recognition of Dr. Victor Ling’s contribution to TFRI over 15 years. Registration for this event is by-invitation only.
