Welcome!
Welcome to the Carcinogenesis Society Specialty Section. Our section serves
as an information resource for SOT scientists around the world and our interest
and responsibilities include:
- Highlighting and presenting topical carcinogenesis research
Providing and exchanging educational materials and resources to the scientific
community
- Advising and updating regulatory agencies, the media,
and the public worldwide on the latest and most relevant
information on carcinogenesis
- Providing a medium for sharing information on methods
and recent applicable publications in carcinogenesis research
- Recognizing current and developing leaders in carcinogenesis
research through awards and sponsored presentations
Our membership is
multidisciplinary and drawn from academia, industry, and government.
Our areas of expertise include biotechnology, environmental health,
and pharmaceutical and food safety. We have a broad range of interests
that include, but are not limited to, the understanding of genetic
susceptibility to disease phenotypes at the molecular, cellular,
whole organism, and population level as well as to understanding
the molecular mechanisms that underlie functional changes due
to toxicology and carcinogenesis.
