Abstract

What can be more befitting than bringing a large number of cancer research experts from various parts of the globe to discuss recent advancements in complex cellular signaling network and cancer in a city that has more than 300-year-old rich history of culture and produced all nobel laureates from India. This meeting was organized by CSIR-IICB, which brought together several scientists from USA, UK, Canada, Germany, Japan, South Korea, Singapore, Italy and Australia, as well as a very large number of scientists from all over India to discuss emerging areas such as cancer cell signaling, signal networks, cell survival and novel or traditional therapeutic approaches to treat different cancers. The meeting was particularly enriched with the presence of large contingent of PhD students and research scholars from all over India, who presented their latest research findings in the area of cancer through more than 100 posters and 20 oral presentations. The meeting was as a part of the 30th Annual Convention of the Indian Association for Cancer Research (IACR) a premier body that promotes cancer research, education and awareness in India. IACR was founded in 1981 and is now a leading body of cancer research in India. It continues to attract people from diverse areas with a common interest in cancer.
