The Young Investigator Summit brought childhood cancer researchers together to discuss their work in a changing landscape. YI Grants are awarded early in their research careers, hopefully leading them to more cures.
Thanks to all who attended and to Northwestern Mutual for sponsoring the YI Summit!

After this year's Crazy 8 Summit, we are more motivated than ever to cure the incurable.
We want to thank all of the childhood cancer researchers who gathered at this year's Crazy 8 Summit. Without your dedication and collaboration, we could not make this much of an impact for kids with cancer.
