National Program:
The Exhibit Program supports
National Cancer Institute mission by providing the means for the Institute
to have a visible presence at a variety of professional meetings. NCI
exhibits are designed to provide a cohesive forum for informing basic
and clinical cancer researchers and health professionals about NCI programs,
products and services as well as to receive feedback from our targeted
groups.
NCI exhibits and provides
staff at approximately 20 large professional meetings each year. These
meetings, mostly national, are selected by their applicability to the
overall NCI mission and program needs and applicability to any current
Institute priorities. In general, large custom exhibit structures are
sent to these meetings. These exhibits are designed to store and display
large quantities of printed materials as well as demonstrate online products.
