CSCs are thought to be nearly dormant. Would be good to know if they are lurking.

Re: Program and poster titles for 2009 SABCS on web site

Steph, that one caught my attention as well. I am also interested in the Thursday discussions of "Are there Groups of patients who don't benefit from chemotherapy?" and "Alcohol and Breast Cancer Survial in a Prospective Cohort Study."

Poster Session 5 has an interestingly named abstract I can't wait to see: "5049 How Important is Cognition for Women with Breast Cancer?" I mean, duh! Did they even need to ask that question?

No way I know of to tell until the conference. If you go to the main web site for SABCS and click on the media link, you can see their rules about release of information, even while the conference is going on.

Someone (Toloros) has sent a virus into this Board. Please avoid replying to any thread started by this guy. Usually Joe will clean it up and protect us from this 'home invasion'.

If you don't see a member's posting, click on the heading on the main Board. It will give you a list of all the postings in reverse chronological order. Click on the one you'd like to reply or post a new thread. Just don't continue any thread started by this 'man behave badly'.
