Cancer Stem Cells: Impact on Treatment - 2018

Although some of the keynote speakers were very good, there were also several presentations that were of low quality, which was disappointing. Maybe the selection of talks could be somewhat more critically. For future meetings I would suggest less keynote speakers, but give them a full hour, after dinner for instance. Next, don't let the speakers chair their own session, because this will result in timing problems.. Also, I would suggest to start at the evening of arrival, and skip the saturday morning session, to make it a little shorter. Location and meals were very nice.

This is good place, and may be join next time!!

I liked it as it was. There were quite a few talks on microenvironment. I would suggest to include this topic in the meeting's title, such as Cancer Stem cells and microenvironment, to attract also people working on microenvironment.

It was an excellent meeting! there are two comments on the keynote lecturers and chairing the session: everybody had the conference program, and the chairmen especially if he/she are the keynote lecturers should control the duration of the presentationS. Ira asked everybody to be in time. Ira, the conference was organized perfectly!

Ira, this is a great meeting, I really enjoyed all of three and half days. Let me know if I can be any help in the future meeting. Jinsong

excellent content, perfectly organized conference

would attend again

This was an excellent meeting!

The conference was excellent in learning cancer stem cells and highly organised covered all the topic.

well organized meeting

Excellent meeting with good speakers and plenty opportunities to network

The CSC Conference-2018 was excellently organized; very interesting presentations and keynote lectures. The round table on cancer metastasis and treatment was especially interesting and useful. The venue of the conference is beautiful!

A very good conference for interacting with participants and exchanging ideas.

Very interesting conference!

Useful and interesting event

Really good conference for networking.

Second International Conference "Cancer Stem Cells: Impact on Treatment - 2018" was devoted to a wide range of current problems of cancer research and therapy: from analyzing the molecular mechanisms of regulation of cancer stem cells and tumor niche cells to presenting the clinical outcomes of applying new therapeutic strategies based on cancer stem cells. Researchers and students from fourteen countries took part in the conference. During the meeting the leading basic researchers and clinicians presented lectures on the various aspects of the molecular regulations of cancer stem cell maintenance and actively discussed the results of the anti-cancer trials. A detailed analysis of a wide range of problems in each presentation was useful to scientists and clinicians working in this field , as well as students interested in the cancer research. The conference had a carefully planned program, that took into account the topics of the presentations in each session, and has become a perfect place for international communications and new collaborations. The participants had an excellent opportunity for personal communication and a good relaxation after the conference sessions. The venue of the conference was the Krumers Alpin Resort & Spa in Seefeld, which is one of the most exclusive hotels in Tyrol. Special prices for hotel accommodation were provided for conference attendees. The conference fee was reasonable for most of the participants and covered provided meals – coffee breaks, lunches and dinners. I would strongly encourage cancer researchers and clinicians to attend this meeting in the future. Many thanks to the organizers and personally Prof. Ira Skvortsova for an excellent scientific event! ... Show more Show less

Great Organized congress. Perfect for interaction with other scientists!!!

Excellent meeting!

Overall an excellent meeting. The size was perfect in order to create an ideal and interactive environment. The venue was excellent. Amenities and food were outstanding. My only suggestion, chairs with fold out tables to facilitate writing and laptop usage for so many hours.

The selection of abstracts for the oral presentations should be screened more carefully. The chair person for the session needs to be strict with time management even if it's a keynote speaker. Also, having a keynote speaker as a chair for his own talk/session is not the best idea.

Very excellent academic events! We got lot of great interactions and communications as well as future collaborations in plan based on the congress. The speakers are very high level and professional in a multidisciplinary fields from basic research to translational and clinical applications! We highly recommend more CSC focus group to join and get involved!

This was a small but intensely scientific meeting where we all had opportunities to listen to every single talk, interact and exchange ideas and information. It opens up scope of future collaboration. The meeting was organized very well. I certainly recommend my colleagues and students to attend the future meetings.

This was an outstanding conference due to high quality of speakers, and the theme of the conference which is timely and very important. The venue was excellent and the pace of the conference very well organized. All and all this was an impressive conference.

Unfortunately our microscope are not that apt for looking at cells in 3D culture which was what most of the participants on the meeting was looking for there for our business opportunities were not the best. However, I enjoyed the seminars very much and learned some new insight that we will look into implementing in the microscope in the future.

Excellent meeting!!!. I strongly recommend to participate in the next meeting of CSC: Impact on Treatment.

This was an excellent meeting. Science, organization, venue, hotel rooms and foodwere all excellent.

Excellent talks about new concepts. A lot of unpublished data was presented and discussed. Perfect to get in contact with different researchers

Great conference, very interesting topic and lot of interesing talks.

It was a high level of participants and a good organization of the event despite the narrow topic of the conference .

Excellent meeting, beautiful location!

The conference was outstanding from both scientific and organizational point of view. It was a great opportunity for fostering scientific discussion and collaboration. The location was amazing. I would recommend to attend this conference in the future

It was a very nice event, with very high quality speakers

With conference I am very amazing
