2nd MRS Early Career Research Virtual Meeting | Metastasis Research The 2025 MRS Early Career Research Virtual Meeting is a two day meeting aimed at engaging trainees and early career researchers from around the world and highlighting recent advances in metastasis research through keynote presentations, invited talks, panel discussions, and selected talks from abstracts. The meeting is organized and hosted by the Early Career Leadership Council (ECLC) of the MRS. Abstracts are being accepted for consideration for oral presentations. Abstract submission is open to graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, medical students, residents, clinical fellows, and researchers within 3 years of starting their own independent research group. Registration for this meeting is free for MRS Members!

๐Ÿš€ Two weeks to go!
The ECR Meeting brings together early-career scientists driving the next wave of metastasis research.
