Summary
In recent decades, researchers in cancer metabolism and signaling have uncovered complex metabolite-signaling networks in cancer. These networks support tumor progression by inducing cell growth, influencing stress responses, restructuring the tumor microenvironment, aiding immune evasion, and promoting metastasis. Many of these oncogenic metabolic changes are unique to tumors, and therefore provide promising therapeutic targets. The New York Academy of Sciences is proud to present a one-day scientific symposium titled, “Cancer Metabolism and Signaling 2025,” which will take place in New York City on April 8, 2025. The latest in our series of annual meetings on the topic of cancer metabolism, this conference will convene multi-sector scientists and clinicians working in basic, translational and clinical cancer metabolism research to discuss the intersection between cell signaling and metabolism and explore how tumor cells exploit cellular signaling and metabolic pathways to support malignant growth.
