The organizing committee is pleased to extend an invitation to attend the 9th International Congress of the NDP Kinase/Nm23/awd Gene Family – A New Frontier in Cell and Cancer Biology, to be held on July 31, 2013 – August 4, 2013, in Boston, Massachusetts, USA. The aim of this meeting is to interrogate the latest findings of this multifunctional protein family in development, cellular homeostasis and cancer progression, leading to discussion on latest advances in therapeutic strategies. The tradition of intimate setting and lively discussion should foster collaboration and stimulate new ideas. We hope to bring together many different perspectives for an exciting conference.
About the Congress
The family of NME proteins (NDPK/Nm23/Awd) regulates a vast variety of cellular processes and, therefore, participates in important physiological events such as proliferation, differentiation, molecular transport, and apoptosis.
Experts in the field will address the different topics from basic discoveries and experimental approaches to solutions for public health problems.
