On the 30 of November a Comparative Oncology Symposium was held in Canberra.
This joint presentation brought together speakers from the National Cancer Institute, US National Institute of Health, The Australian National University, and the University of Sydney Faculty of Veterinary Science.
Comparative Oncology focuses on the similarities between animals and people in the epidemiology, pathology, diagnosis and treatment of cancer, and the aim of this symposium was to encourage discussion regarding the potential for increasing the cross over in research, enabling funding to benefit both people and animals.
