Nutrition and
Cancer Congress, May 19-23, 2008, Antalya, Turkey
FIRST INTERNATIONAL
CONGRESS ON NUTRITION AND CANCER
May 19-23,
2008
ANTALYA,
TURKEY
On behalf of
the organizing committee, we would like to extend a warm invitation
to all interested in the field of cancer and nutrition to attend the
First International Congress on Nutrition and Cancer to be held in Antalya,
Turkey on May 19-23, 2008.
We will have
a program packed with outstanding lectures, including keynote talks,
plenary sessions, oral presentations and poster discussions. In addition,
social programs will be planned for the evenings. There will also be
pre- and post-meeting trips to popular tourist destinations such as
Mount Nemrut, Kapadokya (Cappadocia), Efes (Ephesus), Antalya and the
Turkish Riviera, Bodrum (Halicarnassus), Ankara and Istanbul.
The program
will include presentations by leading basic, clinical, and epidemiologic
scientists on the latest discoveries in their areas. Attendance at this
conference will be an efficient way to keep current in a rapidly changing
field. Exciting sessions will be devoted to oxidative stress and inflammation;
nutrition, physical activity, and obesity; nutrigenomics; epigenetics;
chemoprevention. Sessions will integrate the key disciplines of clinical,
behavioral, animal model, and epidemiologic research.
The meeting
location, Antalya is a beautiful city with thousands of years of history.
It is a major tourist destination known as the Turkish Riviera in southern
Turkey. The city is known for its rich history, mild climate, beautiful
beaches and snow covered mountains, where people can swim and ski on
the same day. We look forward to seeing you in Antalya for this outstanding
conference.
