Welcome colleagues,
The annual Global Academic Programs (GAP) Conference is a forum where MD Anderson Cancer Center and its global network of hospitals, health systems and research institutions collaborate to develop impactful, innovative ideas and research that help MD Anderson achieve its mission to end cancer globally.
This conference centers our attention on the theme – New Frontiers – Leading Inspired Cancer Care. We are looking forward to highlighting global collaborations that bring to light clinical and translational research, population health and government engagement initiatives.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, GAP2020 will be held as a virtual event, coming to your nearest screen from 16-19 November 2020. We are currently finalising our amazing line up of speakers and more announcements will be made soon.
We look forward to connecting with you virtually later this year.
