Young Oncology Academy 2026

The Young Oncology Academy (YOA) is taking place for the 11th time under the direction of Prof. Dr. Miklos Pless. This year, the mentors will accompany and support up to twelve mentees.

Once again, the mentees will gain valuable insights into statistical fundamentals as well as into the development of a research proposal. A special highlight will again be the presentation of the key findings from their congress visit at the SOHC.
