Commission on Cancer Announces Annual Cancer Research Paper Competition

The Commission on Cancer (CoC) has launched the 2022 Research Paper Competition for physicians-in-training to foster the importance of oncologic research in support of its mission. Abstracts can be submitted under one of two categories: clinical research or basic science. The first-place winners will receive a $1,000 honorarium plus an opportunity to present their papers at the CoC’s Plenary Session in October 2022. Second- and third-place winners will each receive $500 cash. Please help spread the word about this opportunity, so that the Commission on Cancer can look forward to receiving another round of outstanding submissions to this year’s competition.

More information on eligibility, requirements, and awards are available on the Commission on Cancer website. Submissions are being accepted through June 30, 2022, at mleeb@facs.org.
