The « Tumor targeting & radiotherapies network » of the Cancéropôle Grand-Ouest is glad to announce its ninth international workshop dedicated to young researchers (PhD Students and Post-Docs). This workshop will be focused on “New Advances in animal Models and preclinical Imaging for translational Research in Cancerology” from the 30th of September to 3rd of October 2015 in La Turballe, west of France.
