Dear TRANSPANers,
We are pleased the announce that applications are open for the next COST workshop for early-stage researchers, Modelling treatment response in PDAC, which will be held in Madrid, Spain, Friday 30th May 2025 organized by Julie Earl and Bruno Sainz. The workshop will include 12 early stage researchers with the support of 3-4 mentors.
Training school on "Application of AI and Machine Learning in Biomarker Discovery and Personalized Medicine for Pancreatic Cancer"
8-10 September
Coimbra, Portugal
Organized by Joel Arrais
Further details and a call for applications will be posted soon.
The annual meeting will feature a workshop on achievements of TRANSPAN during the past years, with working group-specific sessions, discussions about various activities, such as training schools, workshops, seminars, publications, STSMs, science communication, interaction with patient organizations, the website, and ample time for free discussion and networking.
The training school will focus on handling patient-derived xenografts (PDX) models — including preparing organoids and tissue slices from PDX tissues, treating them, and evaluating results using 3D Lumi, histopathology, and immunohistochemistry.
Organizer: Božena Smolkova
A workshop with theoretical and practical training on prediction of pancreatic cancer risk, with special emphasis on two groups: 1) people belonging to high risk categories (e.g., members of families with recurrence of pancreatic cancer, people with chronic pancreatitis) and 2) the general population.
Fourth edition of the TRANSPAN early career investigators' workshop. During sessions focusing on the TRANSPAN working groups, chaired by senior mentors, the participants will have the opportunity to present their current projects to peers and experts from various research fields.
Organizers: Beatrice Mohelníková-Duchoňová, Martin Loveček
Participants will gain practical expertise in building, validating, and interpreting machine
learning models for pancreatic cancer biomarker discovery, enhanced capacity for AI-driven
research collaboration within TRANSPAN, and strengthened networks among early-career
researchers in computational oncology.
