These Transatlantic Exchanges, which have in the past focused on immuno-oncology, AI and data science, result from an agreement passed between Gustave Roussy and the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, supported by l’Institut Servier. The collaboration includes annual conferences alternating between Boston, USA, and Paris, France, and also fosters scientific collaboration between these two major institutions by enabling a biennial fellowship program for four young researchers, and post-doctoral students from Gustave Roussy, who are hosted with the Dana-Farber teams.
