Clinical Proteomics in Oncology

The French Institute of Cancer (Canceropole Grand-Est) and the CLIPP Proteomic Platform (Dijon, Besançon) organize the 2nd international conference entitled "Clinical Proteomics in Oncology" in Dijon (France) on July 3rd and 4th , 2008.

This meeting will put together scientists from France and abroad interested in medical and biological oncology, pharmacology, biological markers, nanotechnologies and bioinformatics.

More than 20 speakers with international recognition, half of them from European countries other than France and from United States, have accepted to share their results and experience in the clinical proteomic field. Presentation of your own results in the form of posters is encouraged. Our objective is to determine how to optimally use the proteomic analyses to progress in doing early diagnosis, in establishing a prognostic and predicting the therapeutic response in patients with cancer.

Conferences will include the results of recent clinical trials, the criteria for standardization of methods, the new approaches and alternatives to profiling, and the methodology of bio-statistic analyses.
