9th Barossa Meeting 2019 - Cell Signalling in Cancer Medicine

The 9th Barossa Meeting on the theme of ‘Cell Signalling in Cancer Medicine’ to take place in the Barossa Valley from 12th – 15th November 2019. 


The Barossa Meetings bring together some of the world’s best scientists across different disciplines in a convivial atmosphere conducive to open and energetic discussions. The 2019 meeting’s theme of ‘Cell Signalling in Cancer Medicine’ will continue this tradition by bringing into focus the major new paradigms arising from fundamental discoveries and their impact on therapeutic strategies. In addition to the numerous international delegates, the meeting will be attended by many of the key Australian researchers in cell signalling and cancer medicine.

As has become tradition, the 9th Barossa Meeting will be the occasion to award the Clifford Prize for Cancer Research to a scientist whose contribution has made a global difference in the fight against cancer

The Novotel Barossa Valley is the location for the 9th Barossa Meeting. It boasts a superb, but somewhat isolated location which encourages delegates to remain on-site for the duration of the conference, providing ample opportunity for delegate interaction during the breaks in the Scientific Program.

Gender Equality 

The Barossa Signalling Meeting strives to achieve gender balance in all aspects of the conference. We endeavour to attain this balance through equal female and male representation on the organising committee and as session chairs, as well as through invitations to high quality speakers of both sexes in accordance with the gender balance in our research community
