Canceropole-GSO

.......... Work performed over the last decades on mouse models of skin cancer have provided fundamental insights into various aspects of cancer development including mechanisms of action of oncogenic pathways, determination of the cell of origin of various skin cancers, or the role of the microenvironment.
The 2014 Mouse models of skin cancer conference will be the 2^nd international meeting sponsored by the french Cancéropôle Grand Sud-Ouest on mouse models of cancer. It will be held on May 25 to 28, 2014, in Montpellier.
..........The conference is designed to bring together in an informal environment international experts working in the field of melanoma and non-melanoma skin cancers who use mouse models to better understand the development of skin cancers and rationalize the development of novel therapeutic strategies. This meeting aims at fostering interactions between basic scientists, clinicians and expert pathologists that will comment on common traits and differences between mouse models of skin cancer and the corresponding human diseases.
..........The plenary sessions will highlight cutting edge research in the field of skin stem cell and tumor heterogeneity, the newest findings based on mouse models of melanoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and other skin cancers. A significant number of oral presentations will be selected among submitted abstracts.
..........A dedicated pathology session will be open to researchers and pathologists willing to share original observations obtained from faithful mouse models of skin cancers.
