SAS19 — Seed and Soil: Mechanisms of Metastasis

We invite you to join us at the 2nd joint EACR-MRS Conference on Seed and Soil: Mechanisms of Metastasis. This is a joint conference organised by the European Association for Cancer Research (EACR) and Metastasis Research Society (MRS).

Metastasis formation is responsible for over 90% of cancer patient deaths, largely due to the fact that therapies are generally ineffective against detectable metastatic tumors. There is thus a crucial need to mechanistically understand the cellular, tissue and whole-body processes driving metastasis formation in order to identify effective therapeutic strategies. This conference will give an in-depth overview of our current knowledge on cancer, stromal and immune cell centred mechanisms promoting metastasis formation presented by world-leading researchers in the field.

Topics: cancer, tumor, tumour, metastasis, therapeutic, stromal, immune, cell, research, therapy, treatment, oncology
