Tumor Progression and Therapeutic Resistance, Volume 1059

The entire breadth of translational cancer research is addressed in this volume, which brings together members of academia and industry in the expectation of accelerating interactions and progress in the field.
A variety of key topics are presented, beginning with discovery of molecular targets and pathways (oncogene, cell survival, tumor suppression, cell death), host–neoplasm interactions (cell adhesion, matrix proteases), early detection, monitoring progression, understanding tumor progression and metastasis, immune surveillance, in vivo molecular imaging, animal models, drug discovery including chemistry, high–throughput assays, mechanism determination, target validation, therapeutic window and some progress in clinical trials for more advanced agents and targets.
NOTE: Annals volumes are available for sale as individual books or as a journal. For information on institutional journal subscriptions, please visit www.blackwellpublishing.com/nyas.
ACADEMY MEMBERS: Please contact the New York Academy of Sciences directly to place your order (www.nyas.org). Members of the New York Academy of Science receive full–text access to the Annals online and discounts on print volumes.
