Prof. Paul J. Higgins
is currently a Professor and Director of the Center for Cell Biology and Cancer Research at the Albany Medical College in Albany, New York. He was the founding Vice President of the Albany Research Institute (ARI) and currently serves on the ARI Board of Directors. He has received several prestigious awards including the Moyer Award and, most recently, the 2008 Excellence Award in Molecular Medicine. Molecular genetic studies in Dr. Higgins laboratory identified the mammalian SERPINE1 gene and the SERPIN family as key elements in the regulation of cell shape, motility, growth control and tissue invasion.

Prof. G. J. Peters
acting Head for the Laboratory Medical Oncology, VU University Medical Center, Netherlands. The major research interests of Prof. Peters include all aspects of pharmacology of anticancer agents, with emphasis on antifolates, other antimetabolites, platinum analogs, taxanes and more recently anti-signalling agents and third generation targeted-agents. The focus is on the improvement of treatment of lung, colon and pancreatic cancer, either by optimizing combinations or by identification of resistance genes.

Dr. William Chi-Shing Cho
is a Scientific Officer at the Department of Clinical Oncology in Queen Elizabeth Hospital. His main research interests focused on cancer studies utilizing high-throughput technologies to discover biomarkers for cancer diagnosis, treatment prediction and prognostication. He is a Chartered Scientist granted by the Science Council (UK), a Registered Chinese Medicine Practitioner (HK), Guest Professor of many Universities and a Fellow Member of several institutes, including the Institute of Biomedical Science (UK), Hong Kong Institute of Biomedical Science and Hong Kong Society for Molecular Diagnostic Sciences.
