DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The New York Academy of Sciences is planning a landmark international program, "Towards Personalized Cancer Medicine", to explore the personalization of cancer predisposition, diagnosis, prognosis, treatment, and therapy development. The principal investigator for this grant is Dr. Joan Massagu?, Chair of the Cancer Biology and Genetics Program in the Sloan-Kettering Institute, New York. The program will include a 3-day live symposium (to be held in May 2010 in Barcelona) and the development of high-quality print and electronic enduring materials to disseminate the scientific information exchanged by the conference participants. It is very timely that the plethora of data emerging from the molecular signatures of cancers is shared across disciplines to identify the steps toward to the effective personalization (individualization) of cancer medicine. The main goals of this program are: 1) to foster dialogue among basic and clinical scientists working in areas of cancer research and oncology leading to a personalized treatment of malignant tumors; and 2) to generate comprehensive and cross-disciplinary approaches for the translation of personalized cancer research into individualized clinical treatments for cancer. We anticipate an advancement in cancer research and clinical therapy personalization to result from the discussions, enduring materials, and collaborations generated at this meeting. Cancer patients will benefit from discoveries and approaches resulting from this symposium, which is in perfect line with The National Cancer Institute's commitment to supporting research, training and health information relevant to the cause, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of cancer, and to the care of cancer patients and their families. To achieve these goals, the conference will incorporate a combination of plenary lectures, a keynote address, and several elements to encourage networking and audience participation, and to highlight promising young scientists. The program will include a panel discussion, poster and short presentations selected from submitted abstracts, networking breaks, a conference reception, and the availability of travel awards. The conference will attract wide participation (250 attendees) among senior and young scientists, clinicians, and physicians working in the fields of genomics, bioinformatics, proteomics, genetics, epigenetics, cell biology, mouse models of cancer, imaging, drug development, and clinical trials, among others. In addition, we expect this group to include people from academia, industry, regulatory agencies, health care organizations, and other groups interested in the individualized targeting of cancer medicine.

描述（由申请人提供）：纽约科学院正在计划一项具有里程碑意义的国际计划，“迈向个性化癌症医学”，以探索癌症易感性、诊断、预后、治疗和疗法开发的个性化。此项资助的主要研究者是纽约斯隆-凯特琳研究所癌症生物学和遗传学项目主席 Joan Massagu 博士。该计划将包括为期 3 天的现场研讨会（将于 2010 年 5 月在巴塞罗那举行）以及开发高质量的印刷和电子持久材料，以传播会议参与者交流的科学信息。 跨学科共享从癌症分子特征中产生的大量数据，以确定实现癌症医学有效个性化（个体化）的步骤是非常及时的。该计划的主要目标是：1）促进癌症研究和肿瘤学领域的基础科学家和临床科学家之间的对话，从而实现恶性肿瘤的个性化治疗； 2）产生全面的跨学科方法，将个性化癌症研究转化为个性化的癌症临床治疗。 我们预计，本次会议上的讨论、持久材料和合作将在癌症研究和临床治疗个性化方面取得进展。癌症患者将从本次研讨会的发现和方法中受益，这完全符合美国国家癌症研究所的承诺，即支持与癌症的原因、诊断、预防和治疗以及癌症患者及其家人的护理相关的研究、培训和健康信息。 为了实现这些目标，会议将结合全体演讲、主题演讲和多项鼓励交流和观众参与的元素，并重点关注有前途的年轻科学家。该计划将包括小组讨论、海报和从提交的摘要中选出的简短演示、交流休息、会议招待会以及旅行奖励。会议将吸引基因组学、生物信息学、蛋白质组学、遗传学、表观遗传学、细胞生物学、癌症小鼠模型、成像、药物开发和临床试验等领域的资深和年轻科学家、临床医生和医生广泛参与（250名与会者）。此外，我们预计该群体还包括来自学术界、工业界、监管机构、医疗保健组织以及其他对癌症医学个体化靶向感兴趣的群体的人士。
