The Institute of Cancer Research is a unique and remarkable organisation. As one of the leaders of cancer research the discoveries our scientists and clinicians have made are influential throughout the world.
I am delighted to invite you to share in our centenary celebrations in 2009 at a scientific conference in the heart of London. Our speakers are drawn from around the world and represent excellence in their field.
From our beginnings as a small research laboratory, The Institute of Cancer Research has grown to be one of the largest independent cancer organisations in the world. We welcome you to an event which recognises our contribution to the advances made over the past century but has a focus on the future, a future in which we will continue to deliver our mission of ‘relieving human suffering by pursuing excellence in the fight against cancer’.
Professor Peter Rigby
Chief Executive, The Institute of Cancer Research
