It is a pleasure to welcome you all to this exciting and cutting-edge meeting. The meeting is the second in an ambitious series of international cancer meetings initiated and generously funded by Norsk Hydro’s Fund for Cancer Research at the Institute for Cancer Research. For us in CAST Cancer Stem Cell Innovation Centre, though, it is our first meeting of this calibre, and it has been a challenge and given us some worries to plan all the details. We hope it will turn out to be a success, which would be mostly due to the fantastic panel of top level speakers selected by our scientific advisory board, and your own active participation. As we had a very good response from the invited speakers, the programme may be a bit busy, but we hope you will have good opportunity for interaction during the breaks and the more social evening events.
