There is established evidence that physical exercise is a key player for cancer prevention and for improving the prognosis and quality of life of people who have cancer. The conference Moving Beyond, which took place at the Champalimaud Foundation on April 3 and 4 2025, was organised to gather world scientific leaders in the field of “exercise oncology”. During the two-day conference, we interviewed a series of invited speakers on the benefits of physical activity for cancer prevention and treatment and asked speakers to share some of the key scientific advances in exercise oncology.
