โฆ Synopsis
A meeting entitled: "Advances in Neuroblastoma Research-2000" was held in Philadelphia, PA (USA) on 15-18 May, 2000 to discuss the current state of basic and clinical research in neuroblastoma. The "Advances in Neuroblastoma Research" meetings are being held every two years, and the preceding meeting was held in Bath, England in June 1998. About 230 investigators from over 20 countries attended. Almost 200 abstracts were submitted, of which 62 were oral presentations and the rest were presented as posters. These presentations and posters were organized along four main themes: genetics research, biological research, translational research and clinical research.
