With great pleasure we announce the Second Meeting of the Croatian Association for Cancer Research, HDIR (Hrvatsko društvo za istraživanje raka), a member of the European Association for Cancer Research (EACR).

HDIR-2 Meeting will continue with the “From Bench to Clinic” approach, divided into four major cancer research topics.

The Meeting will be held in Zagreb, Croatia at the Hotel International (Miramarska 24, Zagreb) on November 8 and 9, 2012.

The goal of the HDIR-2 Meeting is to promote cancer research in Croatia focused on the cooperation between basic research and clinical cancer management. This meeting will put an emphasis on international communication and cooperation, with speakers from many European countries. The Meeting is the opportunity for cancer researchers and clinicians to gather together and to establish a good working relationship with each other and with other regional societies of the EACR.
Original contributions by clinicians and researchers with an interest in cancer are more than welcome and encouraged. Your contribution to this meeting will mutually benefit all participants and help to make this event successful.

We invite you to join us, and we are looking forward to meet you in Zagreb.

Sincerely,

Sonja Levanat, PhD
HDIR president
