Future perspectives in ovarian cancer research

A conference on ovarian cancer research – held in November 2022

It was a great pleasure for the Swedish Cancer Society to invite researchers to a thrilling conference with outstanding international and national speakers in the field of ovarian cancer.

The conference, which took place 16-17 November in Stockholm, covered a wide range of aspects of ovarian cancer research, from prevention and risk factors, preclinical models and translational studies, clinical treatment research and palliation.

The second day of the conference included a workshop with the aim of clarifying the challenges of ovarian cancer research and identifying where the greatest opportunities for important progress are.
