International Lymphoma Epidemiology
Consortium
Symposium: New Insights Into the Causes of Lymphoma
Menzies Hotel,
Sydney
Monday 28 July 2008
Call for Abstracts
In 2008, a one day symposium entitled “New insights into the causes
of lymphoma” will be held the day prior to the Seventh Annual Meeting
of InterLymph investigators. This meeting will be open to all InterLymph investigators,
as well as others with an interest in the causes of lymphoma.
The meeting is
being organized by the InterLymph Working Groups, the Coordinating Committee,
and the Sydney conference convenors. The meeting will take the form of a number
of invited presentations across the InterLymph working group areas of Lifestyle
and environment, Host and Genetics, Immunity and Infection, Pathology and Survival,
Hodgkin’s disease and Multiple Myeloma. Invited presentations will be
chosen by the Coordinating Committee, with the active advice and participation
of the Working Groups.
In addition to invited presentations, there will be
a limited number of places available for oral presentation of new findings
of relevance to lymphoma etiology. These may present results, or provisional
results, from InterLymph studies, or results from other studies of lymphoma
etiology that would be of interest to the InterLymph investigators.
All InterLymph
members are invited to submit an abstract.
All submitted abstracts will be
judged by the conference organizing committee comprising one representative
from each working group, as nominated by the working group. Those presentations
that do not receive oral presentations, but are judged as being of sufficient
quality, will be invited to prepare a poster for a poster session and reception
which will occur at the conclusion of the symposium.
The final date for abstract submission is March
31 2008. If you will have data available only after this date, please contact
the conference convenors.
