✦ Synopsis

hy is an international congress on tumour necrosis factor (TNF) still successful and well attended? TNF and related molecules are certainly important to biomedical research. But it is the consistent high quality of the presentations, and the stimulating blend of signalling pathway minutiae, transcriptional regulation, molecular genetics, human disease and effective new therapies, that make these meetings so exceptional. Indeed, at the recent meeting held in Trondheim, all 72 oral presentations and over 100 posters were worth hearing and seeing. This report will highlight several of the areas covered.
