Abstract
The growth in our knowledge of Cancer Biology has led to remarkable progress in cancer prevention, early detection, and treatment. Scientists have learned more about cancer in the last 2 decades than had been learned in all the centuries preceding. This doesn’t change the fact, however, that all scientific knowledge is based on the knowledge already acquired by the hard work and discovery of our predecessors – and we know that there’s still a lot more to learn. The presentation will highlight the latest on cancer research and treatment that is advancing on so many fronts in reference to immunotherapy, targeted therapy and minimally invasive surgical solutions.
