28th International Association for Breast Cancer Research Conference
09 Mar 2012
15-18 April 2012 at The Palace Hotel, Manchester (register by 16 March).
The Conference will encompass breast cancer development and progression with an emphasis on the influence of the stromal environment, bringing together cutting edge experts in these areas with young investigators to discuss the important role of stroma and its role in cellular adhesion, stem cell activity, migration and metastasis.
There will be sessions focused on breast cancer development, precursor lesions, invasive cancer and metastatic disease. The goal of the meeting will be to stimulate discussion that connects an understanding of stromal epithelial interactions with the alterations that occur during tumourigenic progression.
The overall objective is to highlight the potential that targeting the stromal environment will have for improving breast cancer treatment.
