Early cancer detection

The application of molecular technologies with minimally intrusive surgical techniques has recently laid the foundation for a revolutionary leap in the science of screening, early diagnosis and target-based therapy for cancer. Fueled by the discovery of cancer-specific biomarkers, and aided by pathological improvements, molecular-based tests are in the not-too-distant future to  identify potentially targeted population undergoing environmental risk to develop cancer disease

The aim of the First International Conference on “ EARLY CANCER DETECTION: ENVIRONMENT, BIOMARKERS AND MECHANISMS” in Calabria is to bring together scientists that work in different areas of basic and translational cancer research and clinical oncology to discuss the scientific advances in the development of molecular methods  for early detection of environmental cancerogenesis.

The scientific sessions  will cover epidemiology, environmental risk factors of cancer, mechanisms of carcinogenesis as well as the role of oxidative stress in cancer. The experts will  also report on genetic biomarkers of cancer susceptibility and on advanced methodologies to assess the exposure to environmental toxins.
