Announcement ASCO Annual Meeting
Four young cancer investigators (restricted to MD’s) will be offered the possibility to attend the 2026 ASCO annual meeting once again!
Dear colleagues,
We are pleased to announce the continuation of the Belgian Post-ASCO meeting initiative started in 2023. Thanks again for the support of Astra-Zeneca Belgium: three young cancer investigators (restricted to MDs) will be offered the opportunity to attend the 2026 ASCO annual meeting (May 29 – June 2, 2026 • McCormick Place • Chicago, IL, USA).
The support will cover the travel-, housing, and conference registration costs. Candidates will need to be under the age of 36 years at the time of their application and (co-)author on an abstract that has been submitted for this year’s meeting. The heads of the medical oncology departments in Belgium and the Grand-Duché De Luxembourg will be notified of this initiative by email, and there will be a public announcement on the Post-ASCO website.
The candidates must submit their application by email to registrations@congresscare.com, mentioning their date of birth and a copy of their submitted abstract (on a confidential basis).
The period for submission of the candidatures will be March 27, 2026. The best 3 abstracts will be selected during the first week of April, and candidates will be informed regarding the outcome of their applications during the week of April 7th.
Important note: You must also be available to attend the POST-ASCO meeting at Dolce La Hulpe on June 20th, where you will be expected to deliver a brief 3-minute on-stage pitch presenting your abstract and experience.
Yours sincerely,
Caroline Duhem & Bart Neyns
Chairpersons of the 29th Post-ASCO meeting for Belgium & Luxembourg
