Cell Symposium: Overcoming Therapy Resistance in Cancer
November 8-10, 2021 – ONLINE LIVE & ON-DEMAND
As the future situation regarding international travel remains uncertain, we have made the decision to switch the Cell Symposium: Overcoming Therapy Resistance in Cancer to our fully interactive online conference platform. The symposium will continue to take place on November 8-10, 2021.
The online program will include access to the same great content planned for our in-person event with presentations from our invited speakers together with contributed talks and ePosters – all available on-demand for 6 months after the event. You can stream this interactive conference experience live from your desktop or mobile device and connect during the event with speakers and other attendees.

About the symposium
Resistance to therapy poses a major problem for the successful treatment of cancer, and there is a vast wealth of information emerging in the field of drug resistance to cancer. Today, newly-designed molecular therapies such as immunotherapy, together with improved clinical models and high-throughput screens, are providing an unprecedented understanding of how cancer cells evolve to resist treatment. This exciting and rapidly advancing field therefore demands an opportunity to gather and share key biological advances, as well as to provide a platform for discussion and scientific collaboration, building a path from basic science to translational medicine.
Cell Press is pleased to announce this symposium to discuss the mechanisms by which cancer cells resist therapy, examine ways to overcome resistance, and improve approaches to achieving personalized therapies. Leading experts will present experimental findings from preclinical and clinical studies and place a spotlight on key outstanding questions.
