Welcome

On behalf of the Organising Committee, we would like to extend an invitation to all researchers and clinicians to join us at the 2016 Sydney Cancer Conference (SCC2016), being held at Australian Technology Park in Sydney on 22 & 23 September 2016.

SCC2016 will be the fifth Sydney Cancer Conference and for the first time will be co-hosted by the major NSW universities: The University of Sydney, UNSW Australia, Macquarie University, Wollongong University, Newcastle University and Western Sydney University.

SCC2016 will foster the development of our future generation of cancer researchers, and provide a national forum to showcase emerging research and areas of strength in cancer research in NSW.

The theme of the conference is “Bridging research and practice”, which reflects the various elements of cancer research along the translational research continuum. The program will feature all areas of cancer research – basic biomedical, public health, clinical and psychosocial – making the latest information and research available to delegates.

We hope you can join us in Sydney for this unique multi-disciplinary and multi-institutional cancer conference.

Dr Kellie Charles and A/Prof Anne Cust
Co-Chairs, Sydney Cancer Conference 2016
