Welcome to the registration page for the DKTK Scientific Community Meeting
We are pleased to invite you to the upcoming DKTK Scientific Community Meeting in Munich. This meeting marks the first joint gathering of the DKTK Scientific Community across both research pillars – Therapeutic Innovations (Pillar 1) and Diagnostic Innovations & Molecular Prevention (Pillar 2).
The meeting will bring together researchers, clinicians and platform experts from across the DKTK network to showcase scientific advances, discuss collaborative opportunities, and strengthen connections between the two pillars. Through scientific presentations, interactive discussions, and networking opportunities, participants will have the chance to exchange ideas and explore new avenues for collaboration and translation. We also warmly welcome colleagues from the NCT to join the discussion and contribute to the scientific exchange.
