Big Ten CRC Summit 2026

It was held at Big Ten Conference Headquarters, 5440 Park Place, Rosemont, IL 60018.

Senior and junior faculty and fellows in clinical oncology research, basic scientists in drug discovery and translational research, cancer center leadership, industry leaders and medical science liaisons, and patient advocates were listed as the audience.

It was most useful for clinical oncology researchers and fellows at Big Ten institutions, since it was a one-day meeting with spotlights on consortium studies and speakers from Penn State, Ohio State, Wisconsin, Northwestern and Rutgers. Industry attendees could reach investigators through limited sponsorship options, but researchers outside the consortium or those wanting a multi-day scientific program would have gotten less from a single day ending at 2:30 PM.

Academic oncology researchers and clinicians at a one-day meeting usually wear business casual, with industry attendees often a notch more formal.
