AACR Special Conference: Pediatric Hematologic Malignancies

AACR Special Conference is focused on pediatric blood-based cancers and associated disorders categorized as pediatric hematological malignancies. This conference will span the spectrum of relevant pediatric cancer science and medicine, from basic science discoveries to their translation in the clinic, and will cover those scientific areas that cut across all blood cancers such as genomics, cancer metabolism, as well as translational and clinical topics such as genetic predispositions, functional therapeutics, targetable signaling pathways, immunotherapy, and early clinical trials. The conference will also explore topics that highlight the racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic disparities in access to care and the outcome of leukemia and lymphoma treatment in children.
