The Complete Guide to the BASO~ACS Annual Scientific Conference 2026

BASO~ACS Annual Scientific Conference 2026 is a two-day surgical oncology meeting in London, hosted by BASO ~ The Association for Cancer Surgery. BASO describes itself as an umbrella organisation for surgical specialties treating malignant disease, with a research and training role across the United Kingdom and Ireland. The 2026 conference page gives the dates as 5-6 October 2026 in London, while the booking page identifies the venue as The Law Society at 113 Chancery Lane.

The research route is the strongest currently visible feature. The BASO homepage states that abstract submission has been extended until 12 June 2026 and links directly to an Oxford Abstracts submission page for the BASO Annual Scientific Meeting 2026. That submission system required sign-in during this scrape, so categories and detailed submission rules were not visible without logging in. BASO's conference prize-winners page shows that recent annual meetings have included Ronald Raven oral presentation, BASO~ACS oral presentation, Alan Edward poster, BASO Trainees oral and poster presentation, trainee audit/QIP oral and poster, and medical student oral and poster prize routes. The page did not state whether 2026 accepted abstracts will be published in a journal or abstract book.

Registration is handled by BASO's event-booking system. The booking page confirms dates and venue and contains terms for the 2026 Annual Scientific Conference, including a written cancellation deadline of 20 September 2026 with a GBP55 administrative fee, but it did not expose delegate fee tiers before progressing into the booking flow. CPD status, CPD points, named speakers and a detailed programme were not yet published on the rendered pages read during extraction.
