Tumour angiogenesiswill cover topics related to the affect of neovascularation on cancer growth and spread. This session will include not only the basic molecular and cellular mechanisms behind neovascularisation but also put into context the potential value of anti-angiogenic strategies. Speakers represent different disciplines and have been selected for their major contributions to the field of angiogenesis at an international level. This session will, undoubtedly, ensure a most informative and stimulating set of talks.
