About this Event
Inspired by research from across the Cancer Grand Challenges portfolio, this conference will bring together experts across disciplines to examine the interplay of mutagenesis and promotion, moving towards an integrated mechanistic framework of cancer development. It will explore how genetic alterations interact with tissue context, environmental exposures, and clonal selection to drive cancer risk and progression. The meeting aims to catalyse new collaborations and identify opportunities for cancer prevention, early intervention, and therapeutic innovation.
