WELCOME

Dear Workshop Participants,

The Division of Cancer Prevention (DCP) at the National Cancer Institute (NCI) is committed to bridging the gap between laboratory advances and clinical applications in Cancer Prevention and Early Detection. On behalf of DCP we welcome you to the workshop on "Paradoxes in Early Stage Carcinogenesis: New Opportunities for Cancer Prevention and Early Detection." Your active participation will contribute to DCP's efforts to explore new research opportunities and potential areas of investment in early detection of cancer and prevention strategies.

We look forward to a productive meeting.
