A deep dive into the research on cancer metabolism and the tumour microenvironment
About this Event

The 2026 Fundamental Biology of Cancer (FBC) Symposium, in collaboration with the Pancreatic Cancer programme, will bring together scientists, clinicians, and patient representatives to explore how metabolism and the tumour microenvironment shape cancer development, treatment response, and resistance.


Through a mix of keynote talks, short presentations, and patient-led dialogue, we will examine the dynamic interactions that drive tumour behaviour — from molecular mechanisms to translational insights.
