To accelerate cancer research and treatment in Japan, we invite more than 10 world-class experts and opinion leaders in the oncology field to Japan to address the International Academy for Advanced Oncology (IAAO). We provide an opportunity to share cutting-edge information and discussions with leading basic and clinical researchers, and support the construction of a global human network.
