Holden Researchers to Present New Cancer Research Data at 2024 AACR Annual Meeting

A total of 19 abstracts from University of Iowa and UI Holden Comprehensive Cancer Center researchers have been accepted to the 2024 American Association of Cancer Research (AACR) Annual Meeting. The abstracts highlight research advances in several types of cancer, including endometrial, lung, colorectal and breast.

A third of the accepted abstracts include work conducted by trainees in the Cancer Biology and Free Radical and Radiation Biology Programs.
