The University of Illinois Cancer Center thanks everyone who visited our booth at the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting, where we were first-time exhibitors.
At our booth, ASCO attendees could watch a video to learn more about us, use a fun app we created to make personalized drug names, explore Cancer Center clinical trial flowcharts, and meet our Cancer Center members, many of whom treat patients with cancer at UI Health, the academic health system of the University of Illinois Chicago (UIC).
We look forward to seeing you next year at the ASCO 2025 Annual Meeting!
In case you missed it, below is a list of research by Cancer Center members, trainees and co-authors featured at ASCO.
