Cancer Research Day, the cancer center’s annual signature research event, aims to increase understanding and awareness of the IU Simon Comprehensive Cancer Cancer's research endeavors and encourage collaboration with other cancer research institutions in Indiana.
Students, fellows, and faculty conducting cancer research at IU Indianapolis, Indiana University-Bloomington, Purdue University, and the Harper Cancer Research Institute — a collaboration between IU School of Medicine-South Bend and the University of Notre Dame — are eligible to present their current cancer research efforts at Cancer Research Day.
Cancer Research Day in 2026 will be held Thursday, May 7.
