“The 2026 Prevent Cancer Dialogue: Community Impact Through Collaboration will be held in-person May 7-8, 2026, at the Renaissance Arlington Capital View Hotel in Arlington, Virginia.

The schedule is packed with exciting opportunities for participants to immerse themselves in information-rich presentations on topics important to our field, facilitated conversations, relationship-building and more. Participants find the best results when they bring the “Dialogue” back to their communities or workplaces and take actionable steps to make a difference.

This year’s planned topics include:

• Current trends and looking ahead at prevention: discussions to include multiple topics from dietary recommendations to genomics and precision prevention

• Innovative successes at the community level

• Harnessing AI tools to address patient populations and gaps in care, and patient perceptions as this technology progresses

• Expert-led workshopping sessions

• Landscape and direction of early detection, including interventions such as multi-cancer detection, molecular residual disease and biomarkers

• Current advocacy and policy issues

• State of the science overviews in breast, lung, colorectal, HPV-associated cancers, and Hepatitis B, C and liver cancer”
