The European Association for Cancer Research (EACR) has launched a new conference, organised in partnership with The Mark Foundation for Cancer Research: The Rise of Early-Onset Cancers: Biology, Causes, and Detection.
Taking place in Bergamo, Italy on 11-13 November 2025, it will explore the biological mechanisms, associated risk factors, and clinical implications of increasingly common early-onset cancers.
Leading experts will offer insight from diverse fields and discuss the latest discoveries on this topic. Special attention will be given to knowledge gaps, translational studies, healthcare disparities, and towards improving the clinical management of early-onset cancer patients.

As well as the ground-breaking science on offer at this conference, we’ve also planned a range of supplementary activities and networking opportunities:
- Solo travellers’ meet-up– connect with other attendees travelling alone during the first coffee break.
