Eight Young Investigators to Present Diverse Research

The selection committee for the ECOG-ACRIN Young Investigator Symposium named eight young investigators to orally present their research at the 14th annual event, taking place during the upcoming ECOG-ACRIN Fall 2014 Group Meeting in Orlando, FL.
