Description
The postgraduate school Molecular Medicine (MolMed) has been organizing the Basic and Translational Oncology course for many years now – in narrow cooperation with the school Medical Genetic Center (MGC) and with contributions from many speakers from the LUMC. Besides that, many speakers from the NCI will participate. The course provides a comprehensive introduction to the field of translational cancer research.

The program is set up logically in 5 steps, one step a day:
Pathology, diagnostics & pathways in cancer
Biology of the cancer cell: Genetics
Invasion, metastasis & inflammation
Tumor Immunology; Clinical practice: targeted therapies
Epidemiology of cancer; personalised medicine, targeted therapy, clinical trials; end-of-life interventions
The program is enriched with journal clubs (JC’s) on Tuesday and discussion sessions with course speakers on most days. Publications to be discussed are announced two weeks in advance to all participants. We expect you to prepare these before the course starts. All participants are expected to give a short presentation during one of the JC’s. These will be organised during the first day of the course.
Give your preferred JC’s in the free text field on the web form. We’ll send you the assignments & publications.
Audience and participation
The course is directed primarily at PhD students and postdocs in MolMed, MGC, NKI and OOA, but others (e.g., students and technicians of LUMC and Erasmus MC) are welcome too.
