develop effective tools for the diagnosis, classification, and
monitoring of treatment in individual patients. |

approaches to cancer treatment;
- The development of tools for
more accurate tumor diagnosis and prognosis leading to improved
patient care;
- The training of visiting scientists, postgraduate,
graduate and medical students in basic scientific techniques in
the fields of new drug evaluation, analysis of tumor kinetics and
treatment, development of new approaches for cancer diagnosis and
monitoring; and
