Medical Oncology Group of Australia (MOGA) is pleased to announce that applications are now open for the 13th Residential
Australia and Asia-Pacific Clinical Oncology Research Development (ACORD) Workshop
The ASM provides an important opportunity for early and mid-career researchers to learn more about participating in multidisciplinary, collaborative clinical trials research, while fostering meaningful connection and discussion across the research community.
ACORD 2026 will be held from 20–25 September 2026 at the Novotel Sydney Olympic Park. MOGA invites applications from early career clinical cancer researchers from all oncology subspecialties across the Asia-Pacific region.
ACORD is a unique, career-enhancing program distinguished by its global focus, task-oriented format and highly collaborative learning environment. Participants benefit from one-on-one guidance, mentoring and networking with world-renowned faculty, while working in small groups to develop their own clinical research protocols.
The workshop uses problem-based, participant-centred adult-learning principles, combining short interactive lectures with protocol development sessions focused on both clinical research methodology and oncology subspecialties. Participants receive individualised feedback from multiple experts and have the opportunity to establish long-term, international research collaborations.
ACORD 2026 offers a structured week of mentorship, collaboration and research development.
