Origins of Female Genital Cancer: Virological and Epidemiological Aspects, 1985-04-14 - 1985-04-17

 File

Scope and Contents

Cervical cancer remains a major neoplastic cause of death among women worldwide. Identification of its cause would thereby present a major step toward understanding and potentially controlling this important neoplastic disease. Recent advances in molecular virology, in combination with ongoing epidemiological approaches, now seem to make this goal highly feasible. It was thus felt that bringing together the virological, epidemiological, and clinical communities concerned could be particularly useful in expediting this process. The planning for this conference with Professor Harald zur Hausen of the German Cancer Research Center in Heidelberg and Richard Peto of Oxford University began early in 1984.
