The twelfth annual workshop of the European Network for Breast Development and Cancer focused on methods in mammary gland biology and breast cancer, was scheduled to take place on March 26-28, 2020, in Weggis, Switzerland. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the meeting was rescheduled twice and eventually happened as a virtual meeting on April 22 and 23, 2021. The main topics of the meeting were branching and development of the mammary gland, tumor microenvironment, circulating tumor cells, tumor dormancy and breast cancer metastasis. Novel and unpublished findings related to these topics were presented, with a particular focus on the methods used to obtain them. Virtual poster sessions were a success, with many constructive and fruitful interactions between researchers and covered many areas of mammary gland biology and breast cancer.
第十二届欧洲乳腺发育与癌症网络年会聚焦于乳腺生物学和乳腺癌的方法,原定于 2020 年 3 月 26 日至 28 日在瑞士韦吉斯举行。由于 COVID-19 大流行,会议被两次重新安排,最终于 2021 年 4 月 22 日和 23 日作为虚拟会议举行。会议的主要主题是乳腺的分支和发育、肿瘤微环境、循环肿瘤细胞、肿瘤休眠和乳腺癌转移。会议介绍了与这些主题相关的新颖和未发表的发现,并特别关注获得这些发现的方法。虚拟海报会议取得了成功,研究人员之间进行了许多建设性和富有成效的互动,涵盖了乳腺生物学和乳腺癌的许多领域。
