ISCaM2017 - 4th Annual Meeting - Cancer Metabolism - Bertinoro

Read the program

 

The 4th meeting of the International Society of Cancer Metabolism (ISCaM) will be held in Bertinoro, Italy, on 19-21 October 2017. ISCaM2017 will be focused in understanding and potentially manipulating cancer metabolism and microenvironment to enhance cancer diagnosis and monitoring or to suppress disease progression.

 

Rich discussions will take place after each scientific talk, where conference attendees will debate the ideas presented to foster dynamic scientific exchange. The program will provide opportunities for junior scientists, postdoctoral fellows, and graduate students to present their work and exchange ideas with leaders in the field at all levels in basic, translational, and clinical research fields to brainstorm and promote collaborations.

 

The conference site, Bertinoro with its Italian medieval castle, will provide the perfect collegial atmosphere with programmed discussion sessions as well as opportunities for informal gatherings. All attendees are expected to interact and form an ongoing “ISCaM community” of scientists that move the frontier of the field forward.
