APP Cancer Research Summit 2026
Overview
The APP Cancer Research Summit (ACRS) is a two-day conference designed to empower advanced practice providers (APPs) with the knowledge and skills needed to excel in oncology-focused clinical research—whether you are curious about how to get started or already active in clinical research and looking to grow your role on the research team.
ACRS is planned and developed with experienced clinical research APPs to ensure session topics reflect the real-world needs of APPs throughout the oncology research continuum. Sessions will explore Clinical Trials 101, how to develop and lead your own research, ways to advance your role on the research team, and emerging trends in clinical research.
Held in conjunction with the Summit for Novel Therapeutics in Oncology & Precision Medicine in Cancer (STOP Cancer), ACRS welcomes both seasoned clinical research APPs and those newly interested in this area. Our goal is to provide a forum to learn, network, and collaborate with colleagues across the oncology research community.
