The TRaining program for Young cancer leaders in TRAnslational Cancer research (TRYTRAC) is a CCE initiative designed to equip the next generation of research leaders with a deeper understanding of state-of-the-art research and technologies at each partner institution. The program offers workshops hosted by and at each CCE partner site, providing participants with opportunities to meet and engage directly with experts.
Focused on early-career researchers from different CCE sites, TRYTRAC fosters a collaborative environment where young scientists can expand their knowledge and form valuable collaborations. The ultimate goal is to build a strong, interconnected network that enables the sharing of ideas and opportunities, facilitating the development of joint research projects across participating institutions.
