It will be an unique interdisciplinary event representing all fields connected to the the development of cancer immunotherapies. From basic immunology, to translational research to clinical trials, immune monitoring and regulatory aspects, we will explore interrelationships between the fields aiming to facilitate knowledge transfer. We thereby hope to improve and actuate the development of new therapies for cancer.
