Skin Cancer & Melanoma: Bench to Clinic

2.30pm - 7.45pm Wednesday 10th March 2010

The Auditorium, The Beatson Institute for Cancer Research

The purpose of this meeting is to highlight ongoing research strategies, detection and translational improvements in skin cancer, with particular emphasis on melanoma.  The meeting will also foster closer links between colleagues in the laboratory and clinic with a common interest in skin cancer.

The meeting is open to all interested parties and is aimed at postgraduate students, medical students, researchers, clinicians and clinical trainees.

We aim to keep the meeting informal and there will be considerable opportunity for discussion over coffee and a buffet which we hope you will join us for.

We look forward to seeing you at the meeting.  Nicol Keith (Chair, School for Cancer Studies) & Karen Blyth (Beatson Institute)
