2024 AACR Early-career Hill Day

The AACR Early-career Hill Day is an annual event that brings together a group of AACR Associate members to advocate for robust, sustained and predictable funding for cancer research and biomedical science through the NIH and the NCI, on behalf of early-career cancer researchers. The 2024 AACR Early-career Hill Day will take place on February 26-27, 2024 in Washington, DC. Through various congressional visits during a single day, participants stress the importance of investing in the future of cancer research, provide their own personal perspectives as the investigators whose careers may be most impacted by the support of this essential funding, provide firsthand stories about the impact of cancer research funding on their career and share how cancer may have personally touched their life or that of a loved one.

AACR Early-career Hill Day is an important and exclusive opportunity for AACR Associate members to engage in advocacy at the federal level and educate lawmakers on the progress and promise in cancer research.
