Comprehensive Cancer Center Freiburg - CCCF

"I was more than honored to be selected to give a short talk at this amazing Summer School taking place at the DKFZ in Heidelberg, where more than 100 people gathered to discuss topics related to modeling basic cancer mechanisms with organoids, including next innovations and co-culture systems, as well as clinical translation. Thanks to the "Promoting Young Talents" funding from DKTK Freiburg, I was able to speak about my project "Personalized drug testing on patient-derived organoids (PDOs) as an extended arm of the Molecular Tumor Board" in the clinical translation session of the Summer School. The keynote lectures were amazing and the opportunity to network with so many great scientists was fantastic. I really enjoyed this great opportunity!"

"I attended the 3rd German Cancer Research Congress in Heidelberg. The congress showcased the excellent ongoing research in the field of cancer, with a wide range of topics from precision diagnostics to personalised immunotherapy. For me, as a molecular biologist working on cancer genomics, the most interesting part about attending the congress was the opportunity to learn about the translational and clinical side of cancer research. Along with the talks, the encouraging feedback on my poster and the chance to network with fellow scientists was very valuable. I am grateful to the DKTK School of Oncology for generously supporting and sponsoring my participation in this conference."
