Harvard Cancer Consortium (HCC) Celebration of Early Career Investigators in Cancer Research
Early career investigators are a unique reservoir of new ideas, innovation, and excellence in cancer research. To celebrate this, we welcome you to join the Annual HCC Celebration of Early Investigators in Cancer Research. This symposium will showcase the talent of early career investigators at the Harvard Cancer Consortium (HCC) who work in several areas of population science, including epidemiology, biostatistics, outcomes, diversity, and survivorship. We invite all members of the public to attend the event. We also invite students, post-docs, residents, and clinical fellows to submit abstracts for consideration as oral or poster presentations by September 18th. We look forward to an exciting afternoon of discussion, sharing new discoveries, and building new collaborations.

Presented jointly with the Center for Climate, Health, and the Global Environment (C-CHANGE)
Extreme heat is among the deadliest weather threats in the U.S. Rising temperatures take lives, strain health systems, and drive increasing costs. In this discussion, speakers will explore who is most at risk and unpack the economic stakes. They also will examine a range of possible solutions, from providing affordable access to air conditioners, to increasing green spaces, to helping neighbors look out for each other. The experts will share research, frontline experience, and practical guidance so viewers come away with clear steps to help themselves and their communities stay cooler and safer when temperatures soar.

Presented jointly with Harvard Humanitarian Initiative
As the number of Ebola cases in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Uganda climb, health infrastructure and resources are stretched thin. The outbreak response is complicated by conflict, remote terrain, and population movement. With no vaccine or specific treatment for the Bundibugyo strain, surveillance, cross-border coordination, and community engagement is key. Join leaders from WHO and the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies for a conversation that examines the challenges of the current response and what the fight against Ebola reveals about humanitarian aid and global health security.
Watch the premiere on June 30 at 10 a.m. ET on the Harvard Chan YouTube page.
An on-demand recording will be available following the premiere.
