About this event

This EMBO and EMBL symposium in Heidelberg brings cancer biologists together to ask how metastasis starts, spreads and escapes treatment. Sessions run from circulating tumour cells, invasion and plasticity to immune evasion, dormancy, spatial transcriptomics and in vivo models, with keynotes from Joan Massagué and Sarah-Maria Fendt. Two poster rounds, flash talks and Meet the Speakers sessions make it a good fit for PhD students and postdocs as well as established groups, and it can be followed online too.
