Cancer remains one of the most formidable challenges in global health, necessitating innovative solutions that transcend disciplinary boundaries. Despite significant progress over recent decades, the disease continues to pose major obstacles owing to its inherent tumor heterogeneity, therapeutic resistance, and capacity to evade immune surveillance. Addressing these challenges requires integrative approaches in which discovery science and translational research converge to deliver meaningful clinical impact.
In this spirit, the International Conference on Cutting-Edge Research & Innovations in Cancer Towards Improving Patient Outcomes will be held at BRIC-NCCS, Pune, India, from November 6–8, 2025. This meeting will convene leading experts in cancer biology, clinicians, researchers, and early-career scientists to foster the exchange of knowledge and promote interdisciplinary collaboration.
The scientific program will highlight frontier areas driving the future of oncology, including the tumor microenvironment, signaling networks, cancer immunology and vaccines, metastasis, and advances in genomics, proteomics, and proteo-genomics. Dedicated sessions will also address cancer metabolism, emerging therapeutic modalities, and the transformative applications of artificial intelligence and machine learning. Importantly, the conference will integrate discussions on patient advocacy, emphasizing the essential interface between scientific discovery and societal benefit.
Distinguished speakers from India and abroad will present their most recent findings, catalyzing new collaborations and inspiring the next generation of researchers. For young investigators, the meeting provides a unique platform to present original work, engage with established leaders in the field, and develop career-enhancing networks.
We warmly invite you to participate in this global scientific dialogue—an exchange of ideas and innovations united by the shared objective of advancing cancer research towards improved patient outcomes.
