Welcome to the 2025 Aotearoa Concept Development Workshop!
Coming up with ideas for research and turning them into successful studies can seem a daunting challenge.
The aim of this 1-day workshop is to help develop a new idea for cancer clinical research studies into a persuasive 1-page concept outlines. Concept outlines are an ideal starting point for writing study protocols, letters of intent to industry, or grant applications to funding bodies.
Participants in this 1-day workshop are asked to come with an idea for a clinical research study. Workshop faculty members will help participants leave with a persuasive 1-page concept outline.
The workshop program includes short presentations, written exercises, and small group discussions. Participants should be prepared to discuss their idea for a proposed clinical cancer research study.
This 1-day workshop is open to clinicians (doctors, nurses, allied health) and scientists from the broad range of disciplines involved in cancer care including medical, radiation, surgical, haematologic and paediatric oncology, supportive care, palliative medicine, imaging, and psycho-oncology. Trainess, SMO's are all welcome.
Participants in this 1-day workshop will be encouraged to submit their completed concept outlines as part of an application to attend the 1-week ACORD Protocol Development Workshop scheduled for September, 2026 (applications due Feb 2026).
