Fall 2024 CRDC Symposium

We invite everyone to register for the upcoming Fall 2024 CRDC Symposium, planned for October 16-17. The meeting is open to the broad cancer research community and the public. The CRDC will celebrate its 10th anniversary with this one-and-a-half-day event highlighting its accomplishments and looking ahead to exciting initiatives.

An event registration page and preliminary agenda are available at https://events.cancer.gov/crdc/events

We are planning many informative sessions and report-outs on new work, including our AI Data Readiness Initiative and the CRDC's collaboration with the Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H) to develop a Biomedical Data Fabric (BDF) Toolbox.

Our Fall Symposium shares a half-day joint session, focused on data sharing, with CBIIT's Office of Data Sharing (ODS) Annual Meeting. The joint session, on the afternoon of October 16th, will be the final session of the ODS Meeting, and the first session of the CRDC Symposium. If you can make it to all three days, so much the better!

The ODS Annual Meeting runs October 15-16. Registration is available at https://events.cancer.gov/ods/annualdatasharingsymposium

The CRDC has come a long way in the last 10 years as we have empowered the cancer research community with access to NCI-funded research data, secure cloud-based workspaces, analytical tools, and an evolving infrastructure to address the rapidly changing research landscape.

We hope that you will engage with us – in person or virtually – as we all look ahead to the next 10 years.
