STATEMENTS 2008 on Head and Neck Cancer

Program

Dear colleague, To our great delight we like to welcome you to the 3rd International Symposium "STATEMENTS ON HEAD AND NECK CANCER". When we started 4 years ago with a new format our main intentions have been to integrate the audience as much as possible and to open the information to a wide range of interested people. Therefore we are limiting the number of people in the audience on the one hand and open the meeting by making it disposable in the internet on the other hand. Moreover we will give the internet audience the opportunity to come in contact with the experts in a webinar during specified times after the congress. We will make your participation free of charge according to our policy that information must be reasonable especially for young scientists. This year the symposium is titled "Site related cancer treatment". Experts in the field of surgical, medical and radiation oncology as well as basic researchers are asked to make their statements on the influence of the tumor site on treatment decisions. The symposium will be organized in form of 15 discussion panels with different topics. Each panel has 4 participants and will be guided by a moderator. One panelist will give a short lecture introducing the topic before the discussion begins. After the discussion the panelists make their statements. The participants are asked to assume a strong stance defending their arguments, which should be based on objective data collected in form of multi- or monocentric evaluations so that the audience is able to recognize the grade of evidence based background on which the statement is made. We especially thank the national and international organisations and sponsors specified below for making this symposium possible and above all the leading scientists in head and neck cancer for making "Statements 2008" to a state-of-the-art event onsite and online. On behalf of the faculty
