Greetings!

The Coffey - Holden Prostate Cancer Academy Meeting is an annual meeting sponsored by the Prostate Cancer Foundation (PCF) that aims to accelerate translational prostate cancer research through its unique discussion-focused think-tank format.  Approximately 75 investigators divided equally by senior investigators and young investigators are invited to this meeting to participate in deep discussions on emerging and novel advancements and develop new research ideas and collaborations.

Participants are expected to stay for the entire meeting, guaranteed to be a highly engaging and rewarding experience.

For your travel planning, please plan to arrive at the Willard Hotel by 3:00 pm on Thursday, July 16th. On Thursday evening there will be a welcome reception and dinner beginning at 5:00 pm with Session I immediately following dinner. The meeting will conclude by 12:00 noon on Sunday, July 19th.

This year's meeting will focus on Shape-Shifting Across Space, Time, and Therapy and will include sessions on cancer metabolism, AI and spatial decoding of plasticity, targeting the evolving surfaceome, pathology shape shifting, tumor evolution, and adaptive cell states.

This Meeting is a follow-up to the Prouts Neck Meeting on Prostate Cancer, which was originally held by the Organ Systems Branch of the National Cancer Institute from 1985-2007 and resulted in many significant advances in the prostate cancer field. Sorely missed by the research community, PCF reactivated this meeting in 2013. In 2014, this event was renamed in honor of Dr. Donald Coffey and Dr. Stuart Holden, two remarkable mentors and researchers who have made an immeasurable impact on the understanding and treatment of prostate cancer.
