Overview


Organised in association with UCD and supported by EMBO, this conference is designed to bring investigators from oncological backgrounds (both basic and clinical) into close contact with equivalent leaders in proteomics approaches.
The aim is to create a translational framework by which proteomics investigations can advance our knowledge of cancer-related processes and ultimately be utilized in a clinical context.

The event will be held in the dynamic city of Dublin, economic and cultural centre of Ireland.
