Through this international congress it hopes to build upon and develop the great successes already achieved over the past few years. The congress theme of this year is "Hand-in-Hand for Caring" in keeping with the rapid growth and results in cancer research and care throughout the world. The 3-day diverse program has been designed to cover the breadth of oncology from cancer epidemiology and prevention, from drug discovery to cancer treatment and palliative care. It will also cover the main oncological aspects of these themes from molecular biology and genetics, to targeted therapies, innovation technology radiotherapy and imaging.

The program is a very interesting mix of plenary lectures, the technical sessions, educational training courses, practical clinical case as well as industry supported symposia will provide delegates with information on the latest developments in basic science and clinical treatment. Several workshops and posters / papers session will be held concurrently to allow sharing of the excellent experience. The high profile speakers will provide productive form to greatly refresh the participant's knowledge and experience. Participants will enhance practical knowledge for everyday use and explore the most up-to-date information regarding the treatment of cancer.

Please seize this wonderful opportunity and feel free to participate actively in all areas of the conference, I feel confident that you will enjoy both of the scientific program and the fine, traditional city of Beijing.

To facilitate us to know your further interest, we appreciate your advices on:

1. Focused session and speech titles.
2. What’s your opinion to be the session chair/moderator?
