The Virus-Cancer Link: Examining the Role of Viruses in the Development of Cancer

The American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) will host a Meet the Experts session, Dec. 10 in New York City, examining an increasing number of cancers known to be caused by specific viruses. Top physicians in the field will discuss emerging trends and research, highlighting the role that viruses – including HPV, hepatitis B and C, H.pylori, HIV and others – play in the development of cervical, anal, head and neck, liver, stomach, and other lymphoid and solid tumor cancers.
