NCI Office of Data Sharing’s Annual Data Sharing Symposium 2025: How Data Advances the Impact of Cancer Research

Join NCI’s Office of Data Sharing (ODS) at this two-day event, where you’ll explore the transformative potential of broad data sharing and collaborative science for more rapid advances in cancer research. This is a unique opportunity for you to engage with scientists, clinicians, policymakers, patients, advocates, and trainees across government, academia, and industry. You’ll gain valuable insights, forge cross-sector connections, and discover new strategies to maximize the impact of these collective efforts.

Organizers also invite you to showcase your contributions:

• Present a poster highlighting how data sharing has impacted your cancer research.
• Set up a table to demo an innovative data sharing product.

The poster abstract deadline is September 1. Poster presentations will take place on October 1, from 12:00–1:30 p.m., ET. 

If you have any questions about your submission or the event, email the NCI ODS team.

NCI ODS brings together experts and stakeholders throughout the cancer research community to learn from one another and explore ways to improve the implementation of new data-sharing policies for the greatest public benefit.
