Marking the 17th International Symposium in the annual series of prestigious meetings organized by the Fritz Bender Foundation, Progress Towards Individualized Cancer Treatments will take place from 07 - 09 November 2013, co-organized and hosted by the Vall d´Hebron Institute of Oncology (VHIO).

Kicking off with the Keynote on Dissecting Breast Cancer Through the Lens of Development: New Opportunities for Targeted Therapeutics, to be delivered by Geoff Wahl (USA), the outstanding panel of 26 internationally renowned speakers will tackle some of the many remaining questions in our relentless efforts to change the face of cancer through precision cancer treatment and care.

Running for two and a half days, and organized into five main sessions:

1) Genetic Profiling of Patients,

2) Tumor Characterization,

3) Tumor-Host Relationships,

4) Therapeutic Targets I, and

5) Therapeutic Targets II, we can all certainly look forward to discovering, debating  and exchanging some of the most relevant and recent advances within our field.
