The Synthetic Lethality Approaches in Oncology GRC is a premier, international scientific conference focused on advancing the frontiers of science through the presentation of cutting-edge and unpublished research, prioritizing time for discussion after each talk and fostering informal interactions among scientists of all career stages. The conference program includes a diverse range of speakers and discussion leaders from institutions and organizations worldwide, concentrating on the latest developments in the field. The conference is five days long and held in a remote location to increase the sense of camaraderie and create scientific communities, with lasting collaborations and friendships. In addition to premier talks, the conference has designated time for poster sessions from individuals of all career stages, and afternoon free time and communal meals allow for informal networking opportunities with leaders in the field.
Join us for the inaugural GRC meeting on synthetic lethality in oncology. Synthetic lethality is a rapidly evolving field with importance for the development of oncology medicines. This meeting seeks to bridge the experimental and computational approaches that are leading to rapid advances and opportunities for translating synthetic lethality in the clinic.
Topics covered at the GRC will include:
- Lessons from the first wave of synthetic lethal targets in oncology;
- New experimental model systems and emerging molecular biology techniques for detecting synthetic lethality;
- Non-cell autonomous synthetic lethality;
- Measuring complex phenotypes in synthetic lethality;
- AI/ML and active learning methods in synthetic lethality;
- Biological pathways and complex systems as biomarkers;
- New synthetic lethal targets for drug discovery;
- Linking synthetic lethality functional genomics to clinical benefit.
Come join us for this exciting new GRC conference series.
