Feb. 28 – March 1, 2027

The GEOCRC Think Tank Global Collaborative will gather in person for its 2027 convening, bringing together researchers, clinicians, and advocates from across the globe. The Think Tank will advance two years of workgroup outputs, translate science into policy, and align global partners around the fight against early-onset colorectal cancer. Together, this international community is building the evidence base needed to understand and reverse the alarming rise of colorectal cancer in younger adults worldwide.

What we accomplished in 2025:

Fight Colorectal Cancer (Fight CRC) reached a powerful milestone in the global response to early onset colorectal cancer (EOCRC). In June 2025, Fight CRC, in collaboration with Dr. Jose Perea of Instituto de Investigación Biomédica de Salamanca (IBSAL) and global partners convened over 70 leading researchers, clinicians, and patient advocates from 18 countries and 6 continents at the inaugural Global Early Onset Colorectal Cancer Think Tank (GEOCRCTT) in Barcelona, Spain.
