ISMRC 2016

10th International Symposium on Minimal Residual Cancer, Hamburg, 19-21 March 2016

In 2016 we will celebrate the 10th anniversary of the ISMRC meetings which started in 1996 and have established themselves, every other year, as a premier event focusing on the detection, characterization & clinical relevance of Circulating Tumor Cells (CTCs) in solid tumors.

The 2016 meeting in HAMBURG is organized together with the newly established EU IMI consortium CANCER-ID and brings together basic and clinical researchers from academia and companies. The HAMBURG-ISMRC 2016 program will focus on LIQUID BIOPSY in a broader sense and include presentations on CTCs as well as circulating nucleic acids (DNA, miRNA) and exosomes.

Besides invited plenary talks by leading international experts, the HAMBURG-ISMRC 2016 includes oral communications and poster presentations selected from the submitted abstracts to support young investigators as well as a session for companies developing new technologies for liquid biopsy.

We invite you to submit your abstract for consideration by our Advisory Committee for presentation at HAMBURG-ISMRC 2016 meeting. After great cities like Munich, Berlin, Oslo, San-Francisco, Hamburg, Athens, Osaka & Paris, the next ISMRC will take place March 19-21, 2016 at the University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf (UKE) in Hamburg, Germany.

We will be very happy to welcome you in March 2016 in Hamburg!

Klaus Pantel, Chairman of the Organizing Committee
