The meeting will be a dynamic forum that showcases emerging research and areas of strength in cancer research across Australia. It will also foster the development of Australia's next generation of cancer researchers.

From Basic Research to Clinical Practice. Circulating Tumour Cells (CTCs) present in the peripheral blood and Disseminating tumour cells (DTCs) present in bone marrow can now be detected and characterized at the single cell level. These cells are highly relevant to the study of the biology of early metastatic spread and provide a diagnostic source in patients with overt metastases. Research on CTCs present nowadays a challenge, as these cells are well defined targets for understanding tumour biology and improving cancer treatment.

This regular seminar series, hosted by the APCRC - Q, aims to bring together high calibre scientists, researchers and clinicians froma cross-section of disciplines, enabling them to share discoveries and discuss the significance of their work in the treatment of prostate cancer.

The BARBIE is one of the great Aussie icons. It celebrates all the good things about this country – the weather, the food and the people. It seems only natural to us that it also celebrates the Aussie male and helps us raise money and awareness for prostate health.

"Department Showcase" With the exciting academic growth and health care development on the PAH campus, the 2012 Princess Alexandra Hospital Health Symposium will highlight how translational research and partnerships in health disciplines are leading to smarter use of drugs, improved and more cost-effective treatments for cancer; trauma; inflammation; cardiovascular disease and frailty. Educational sessions will cover integrating health service with smart e-applications and digital technologies and experts will lead workshops in statistics and grant writing. The PAH Health Symposium will be augmented by a multidisciplinary program of oral and poster communications - awarding the best basic, medical, surgical, nursing and allied health research with the prestigious PAH Week Awards and Prizes.

The 2012 program includes specialised meetings for Urologists, Researchers, Nurses, General Practitioners, Psycho-Oncologists and Continence Practitioners. All meetings encompass the latest developments in prostate cancer screening, diagnosis and management with educational goals aimed at all practitioners involved.

Featuring Special Guests from the University of California in San Francisco.
