Bilbao, Spain : 6 - 8 October 2026
At the EACR, we know that conferences are about more than just hearing the latest research. Our events are well-known for providing excellent opportunities for networking, interaction, and discussion. Here are some of the features you can look forward to at Cancer Metabolism:
Tuesday 06 October, 14:50-15:20
We know that many of our participants are solo travellers and it can sometimes be a bit difficult to settle into the conference ‘vibe’ after a long day of travelling. We know exactly how that feels after our own travelling experiences so if you fancy meeting up with like-minded people, please meet up by the EACR Conference Banner in the exhibition hall after grabbing a coffee and a snack. This is not a structured event, just an informal opportunity for you to meet other participants who have travelled solo for a chat.
Tuesday 06 October, 17:30-18:15
A welcome drinks reception will be held on Tuesday evening to give participants the opportunity to meet new colleagues and reconnect with friends. A light buffet will be served for all participants and exhibitors to enjoy. The trade exhibition will be open at this time, and there is the opportunity to continue networking and view posters during Poster Discussion Session 1 (which will start at 18:15).
Tuesday 06 October, 18:15-19:45
Wednesday 07 October, 13:40-15:10
There are two dedicated 90-minute Poster Discussion Sessions in the programme. At these times, the presenters for that session should stand by their posters to discuss their work with other participants and invited speakers. As well as the dedicated sessions on Tuesday and Wednesday, there will also be additional poster viewing opportunities at the beginning of each day where posters can be freely browsed.
Tuesday 06 October, 17:00 - 17:30
Wednesday 07 October, 18:10-18:40
Details to be confirmed.
Alongside fantastic scientific content, this conference will feature a small industry exhibition held within the poster area. The exhibition is an opportunity for researchers and companies working in fields relevant to the conference topic to connect and network. Visit the stands during the programme breaks and meet friendly product experts to find out how they can help with your current or upcoming projects.
Wednesday 07 October at 20:00 (optional ticketed event)
The Conference Dinner will take place at Kafe Antzokia’s Restaurant on the final evening of the conference. It will be an excellent opportunity for participants and speakers to get to know each other in a relaxed and informal environment. After dinner, we will enjoy music and dancing with a live DJ.
Tickets for the conference dinner are not included in the registration fee and will soon be available to select as an optional extra.
Due to the size of the restaurant, spaces are limited. The evening is expected to be a sell out, so make sure that you buy your ticket when making payment of your registration fee!
