DESCRIPTION:Meeting website: www.abcam.com/cambridgecancer\n\nA failure of
  cells to undergo apoptosis is a common feature of many cancers. During th
 e last 20 years\, work in many laboratories has led to the identification 
 and understanding of many of the key players involved in apoptosis. This c
 onference will highlight recent developments in our current understanding 
 of the cellular role of some of these proteins as well as how our knowledg
 e of the basic cellular apoptotic pathways is being used to develop target
 ed cancer chemotherapeutic agents. Particular attention will be paid to no
 vel agents  that are currently in development or early clinical trials to 
 exploit our understanding of the Bcl-2 family\, the p53 family\, death rec
 eptors and  inhibitor of apoptosis proteins (IAPs).  Discussion sessions w
 ill involve members from academia as well as industry.
