Oncogenes and human cancer conference

Oncogenes and Human Cancer: The Next 25 Years. Nature and Centro Nacional de Investigaciones Oncolgicas (the Spanish National Cancer Research Centre) are pleased to announce a conference focusing on the future of cancer research on the 25th anniversary of the isolation of oncogenes from human tumours, from 3 to 6 October 2007, in Madrid. The isolation of cancer genes from human tumours represented a landmark in the understanding of the molecular mechanisms responsible for human neoplasia. We now have a more detailed understanding of the molecular changes within transformed cells and how these and the tumour microenvironment influence cancer development. Oncogenes and Human Cancer: The Next 25 Years will emphasize future directions for cancer research and treatment.
