Cancer Data Blitz and Poster Session

Union Center Courtyard

Try to get scientists to stop talking!

On Friday, September 22nd, the Johnson Cancer Research Center will host its annual Cancer Data Blitz and Poster Session in the Union Center Courtyard. From 11:30 am- 1:30 pm, faculty members will present their research and cancer information. There is a twist! Faculty members will only get two minutes and two slides to present their information on their research. It’s a great way to try to make the faculty figure out how to concisely present their information.

The Cancer Data Blitz will be hosted by none other than legendary, local EMCEE Dave Lewis. Dave Lewis is one of the most dynamic and entertaining disc jockeys in the Midwest. He has performed at over 2,000 shows in his career which started in 1979. Dave Lewis is an honorary Wildcat; he has served in the past as the Public Address Announcer for the K-State Football and Basketball Games. He is sure to bring his own special brand of entertainment to the Cancer Data Blitz.

In addition to the Cancer Data Blitz, the Summer 2023 Graduate Student Cancer Research Awardees will also present posters of their work.
