2025 New Investigator Workshop

The New Investigator Workshop is an opportunity for pre- and postdoctoral trainees to meet with nationally recognized leaders in the field of preventive oncology, and to present their research for discussion and constructive criticism. The research may be completed work, work in progress, or ideas in the planning stages.

Three separate workshops, with four New Investigators each, will take place virtually in February and March 2025, on days/times mutually agreed upon by participants and faculty. Up to 12 total investigators will be selected, and participants are encouraged to attend the ASPO Annual Meeting, April 6-8, 2025, in Philadelphia, where an in-person breakfast will take place for faculty and participants. An Annual Meeting registration discount will be available for up to 10 New Investigators who plan to attend in person.

Applications are invited from ASPO members who are pre- or post-doctoral trainees at any recognized institution. Applicants must not have participated in this workshop in the past.
