2nd NCC-UCLA Video-Conference on Cancer Research

Recent development of IT has been increasing opportunities to hold various video conferences. The National Cancer Center has had a videoconference with both UCLA and NCI in the US with some technical problem.  We now have a solution for these technical problems and are going to hold a Korea-US videoconference on cancer. Those interested are welcome to attend this seminar.  The audiences in Korea and the USA will include graduate students and LAB researchers.
