Debananda Pati

Professor, Baylor College of Medicine

Professor Pati is a highly accomplished cancer biologist who is an internationally recognized leader in the field of chromosomal cohesion and Separation and its role in carcinogenesis. He has a highly impressive track record not only in the basic biology of chromosomal cohesion and separation but devising novel and innovative approaches to target the cohesin pathway for treating refractory human cancers. He is widely recognized nationally and internationally as a creative and innovative scientist and is specifically recognized for his identification and targeting of the cohesin-protease, Separase for cancer therapy. Separase, an enzyme important for resolving chromosomal cohesion, is a novel oncogene and promoter of aneuploidy and tumorigenesis that Professor Pati demonstrated is an ideal target for cancer therapy. His laboratory was the first to show that Separase is an oncogene and aneuploidy promoter. In a series of publications in high-impact journals, Professor Pati and his colleagues demonstrated that overexpression of Separase in mouse models not only induces aneuploidy but also results in tumorigenesis.

About Conference


It is with immense pleasure and a great honor; we would like to welcome you all to participate at our conference on 3rd Edition of Global Cancer Meet & Expo Hybrid (Onsite and Online) to be held during October 2-4 2023, in Amsterdam, Netherlands.

The conference is hosted by Linkin Science. These conferences are well crafted and designed by a team of skilled experts. Our conferences are vast expanded into Medical, life sciences, health care, Engineering and other social sciences. Each conference, summit or executive briefing is tailored to the sector, topic and audience need. Our event structure varies depending on issue and market requirements featuring Keynote presentations, Oral talks, Poster presentations, young research forum, Exhibitions, roundtables and variable formats. Our mission is to bring the researchers on a common platform and provide opportunity for them to interact. This scientific networking helps for the betterment of science by exchanging the ideas in a broader way. Magnifying Scientific Knowledge by Sharing the research and ideas. We believe in accelerating the possibilities of novel discoveries and enhancement in scientific research, by connecting scientific community for knowledge sharing. Join us to redefine and explore new research, to provide a credible source to barter ideas for scientific studies besides transforming the true outcomes of a distinct scientific discovery and grab the attention for rare emerging technologies.

Importance and Scope:

Cancer Biology is rapidly expanding by playing a prominent role in many fields. This Conference is a platform to Industry, Academia, Researchers, Innovators to come together to discuss the research activities, advancements, ideas and exhibit latest cancer diagnosis products.

Cancer is a disease in which some of the body’s cells grow uncontrollably and spread to other parts of the body. Cancer can start almost anywhere in the human body, which is made up of trillions of cells. A correct cancer diagnosis is essential for appropriate and effective treatment because every cancer type requires a specific treatment regimen. Treatment usually includes surgery, radiotherapy, and/or systemic therapy (chemotherapy, hormonal treatments, targeted biological therapies). The latest advance in the fight against cancer includes synthetic biopsies to AI-powered detection. As a possible new technology for cancer treatment, gene editing with CRISPR takes months, not a year or two, to genetically modify T cells. A much faster treatment for patients and the potential for genetic medicine is groundbreaking. Cancer may never be able to cure completely, but scientists are optimistic that vaccines, personalized medicine and smart lifestyle choices will help prevent and treat a much greater proportion of cases than currently happens.

Poster Guidelines


A poster presentation is a way to communicate your research in a concise and visually engaging format. Poster presentation helps make clever use of time and space for scientific discussion among conference attendees. Co-authors or colleagues may also be present and participate at the same time in discussions.

Preparing a Poster Presentation

Poster Size:

  • Each poster should be approximately 1*1M long (100*100cms / 39.37*39.37inches / 3.5*3.5 feet)
  • The title, contents, author’s information, affiliation block must be at the top of the poster and should be clearly visible from a distance of 1-2 feet.
  • All materials to be posted on a board must be prepared in advance of the meeting. Authors will not be provided with materials to draft displays on site.

Content:

  1. Use fonts such as Arial/ Times New Roman in a reasonable font size that should be easy to read. The spacing between the lines should also be taken into consideration.
  2. Short phrases and bullet points should be used in the poster to present the main highlights such as list of "key points" and a brief summary of results or conclusions.
  3. An idea about the objective and background of the work should be mentioned.
  4. Graphs, spectra, charts, pictures etc., with a minimum of text to illustrate the nature of the results.
  5. The positive and negative aspects of the work carried out are to be displayed along with the obtained results. Future research prospective and developing aspects of the related research can also be discussed.
  6. Illustrations should not be mounted on heavy stock as this makes it difficult to mount them on poster boards
  7. Each author will be responsible for mounting his/her materials at least 2 hours before the opening of the session. You will receive information at registration check-in (Onsite) and through email (Virtual) for the poster session. 
  8. It is the responsibility of the author to design and print his/her poster and get it to the event.
  9. The collection of materials at the end of the conference is the author's responsibility.

Assorted tips that might be useful: 

  1. Know all the key points to your research story without referring to written notes.
  2. Have your business cards available for those who may wish to contact you at a later date.
  3. If you do need to leave your poster for any reason, ensure you include your email address on it, so you can be contacted by conference attendees who may read your poster while you are not there.
  4. Bring along a tablet or a pad of paper with you to inscribe ideas or to illustrate points during your discussion with attendees.

Scientific Sessions


Cancer Biology and Genetics:
Cancer is a generic term for a large group of diseases that can affect any part of the body. Other terms used are malignant tumors and neoplasms. One defining feature of cancer is the rapid creation of abnormal cells that grow beyond their usual boundaries, and which can then invade adjoining parts of the body and spread to other organs; the latter process is referred to as metastasis. Widespread metastases are the primary cause of death from cancer. The Cancer biologist understand the biological processes underlying cancer initiation, progression, and metastasis. They identify how tumors evolve and respond to or resist treatment and study how cellular processes such as cancer cell metabolism, stress responses, and cell cycle regulation contribute to cancer development and progression. Cancer is a genetic disease. It is caused by changes in genes that control the way cells grow and multiply. Cancer-related genetic changes can occur because, random mistakes in our DNA happen as our cells multiply, our DNA is altered by carcinogens in our environment, such as chemicals in tobacco smoke, UV rays from the sun, and the human papillomavirus (HPV) they were inherited from one of our parents. Researchers continue to study how genetic changes affect cancer development. This knowledge has led to improvements in cancer care, including early detection, risk reduction, the use of targeted therapy, and survival. Researchers have learned a lot about how cancer genes work. But many cancers are not linked with a specific gene. Cancer likely involves multiple gene mutations. Moreover, some evidence suggests that genes interact with their environment. This further complicates our understanding of the role genes play in cancer.

Cancer and Aging:
There is a bidirectional relationship between cancer and aging. Aging is a risk factor for adult cancers, and emerging evidence suggests that cancers and some cancer treatments might accelerate aging. Aging and cancer share many hallmarks such as genomic instability, although cancer cells often benefit from mutations, other cells accumulate damaging mutations resulting in physiological decline and aging. Growing evidence demonstrates that individuals with cancer age faster, so their biological age appears to be older than their chronological age. Cancer survivors, in general, appear to develop age-related diseases and phenotypes sooner than members of the general population. This is likely because damage to normal tissues from cancer therapies diminishes physiological reserve, accelerates processes typically associated with ageing or both. Cancer treatment can help people of any age and age should never be the only factor considered in creating a treatment plan. But it is also known that cancer treatment may be more challenging and complicated for older adults. For example, older adults are more likely to experience serious side effects from treatment.

Cancer Organoids:
Tumor organoids have been proposed as a model system for precision medicine. Tumor organoids are 3D cell culture systems that are generated in vitro from surgically resected patients’ tumors. A cancer/tumor organoid, also known as a “cancer surrogate,”. The ability of tumor organoids to retain characteristics of the original tumor makes them unique for cancer research on an individual patient level. Hence, the idea to use tumor organoids for clinical decision making and optimize patient outcome is tempting. The cancer organotypic models help in understanding of cancer heterogeneity and its implications for personalized medicine. These advancements are, in part, attributed to the ability of organoid models to stably preserve genetic, proteomic, morphological and pharmacotypic features of the tumor in vitro, while also offering unprecedented genomic and environmental manipulation.

Cancer stem cells:
Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are cancer cells (found within tumors or hematological cancers) that possess characteristics associated with normal stem cells, specifically the ability to give rise to all cell types found in a particular cancer sample. CSCs may generate tumors through the stem cell processes of self-renewal and differentiation into multiple cell types. Such cells are hypothesized to persist in tumors as a distinct population and cause relapse and metastasis by giving rise to new tumors. Therefore, development of specific therapies targeted at CSCs holds hope for improvement of survival and quality of life of cancer patients, especially for patients with metastatic disease. Cancer stem cells were first identified in leukemia. The researchers discovered the first cancer stem cells in solid tumors, finding them in breast cancer. Since then, cancer stem cells have been identified in brain, colon, head and neck, pancreas and central nervous system tumors. Stem cells are defined by their ability to differentiate along multiple lineages and their immortality. Cancer is believed to be a stem cell disease in which a small population of cancer stem cells maintains the larger tumor. Cancer may ultimately be eradicated by targeting only the cancer stem cell.

CRISPR in Cancer Therapeutics
CRISPR” (pronounced “crisper”) stands for Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats, which are the hallmark of a bacterial defense system that forms the basis for CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing technology. Genetic mutations that switch on oncogenes (gain-of-function mutations) stimulate carcinogenesis, and the expression of these oncogenes is specific to cancer cells. Knocking out these genes via CRISPR-Cas9 is an appealing therapeutic target because it will prevent cancer growth. Most of the designed strategies have been applied to detect cancer biomarkers in human serum or cell lysis. CRISPR-Cas9 can be employed to promptly engineer oncolytic viruses and immune cells for cancer therapeutic applications. More notably, it has the ability to precisely edit genes not only in model organisms but also in human being that permits its use in therapeutic analysis. CRISPR is becoming a mainstream methodology used in many cancers’ biology studies because of the convenience of the technique. CRISPR is also completely customizable. It can edit virtually any segment of DNA within the 3 billion letters of the human genome, and it’s more precise than other DNA-editing tools. And gene editing with CRISPR is a lot faster. With older methods. Another plus is that CRISPR can be easily scaled up. Researchers can use hundreds of guide RNAs to manipulate and evaluate hundreds or thousands of genes at a time. Cancer researchers often use this type of experiment to pick out genes that might make good drug targets. Taken together, the CRISPR/Cas system possesses great potential for cancer biomarker detection.

Computational Cancer Research, Data Science and Artificial Intelligence
Early cancer diagnosis and artificial intelligence (AI) are rapidly evolving fields with important areas of convergence. The application of AI in cancer practice includes providing clinical decision support for cancer diagnosis and screening, processing medical data for cancer detection or characterization of patient prognosis, and optimizing care delivery and clinical operations by increasing system capacity and allocating resources. AI identifies potential new drugs within a short time period at an affordable cost. Drug testing can simulate and predict the effectiveness of cancer therapies leading to better results in in vivo experiments, which in turn would accelerate clinical research. Scientists have developed AI tools to aid screening tests for several kinds of cancer, including breast cancer. AI-based computer programs have been used to help doctors interpret mammograms for more than 20 years, but research in this area is quickly evolving. AI can quickly understand how cancer cells become resistant to anticancer drugs, which can help improve drug development and adjust drug use. AI improves the identification of tumor neoantigens and the efficacy of tumor immunotherapy. It can help radiologists map target areas or automatically plan radiation treatment programs. AI can manage the use of chemotherapy drugs and predict the tolerance of chemotherapy drugs, so as to optimize the chemotherapy regimen.

Oncogenomics
Oncogenomics is a sub-field of genomics that characterizes cancer-associated genes. It focuses on genomic, epigenomic and transcript alterations in cancer. A mutated (changed) form of a type of gene called a proto-oncogene, which is involved in normal cell growth and division. When a proto-oncogene is changed so that too many copies are made or it becomes more active than normal, it is called an oncogene. Cancer is a genetic disease caused by accumulation of DNA mutations and epigenetic alterations leading to unrestrained cell proliferation and neoplasm formation. The goal of oncogenomics is to identify new oncogenes or tumor suppressor genes that may provide new insights into cancer diagnosis, predicting clinical outcome of cancers and new targets for cancer therapies. Besides understanding the underlying genetic mechanisms that initiate or drive cancer progression, oncogenomics targets personalized cancer treatment. Cancer develops due to DNA mutations and epigenetic alterations that accumulate randomly. Identifying and targeting the mutations in an individual patient may lead to increased treatment efficacy. Access to whole cancer genome sequencing is important to cancer genome research because: Mutations are the immediate cause of cancer and define the tumor phenotype. Access to cancerous and normal tissue samples from the same patient and the fact that most cancer mutations represent somatic events, allow the identification of cancer-specific mutations. Cancer mutations are cumulative and sometimes are related to disease stage. Metastasis and drug resistance are distinguishable.

Infection, Inflammation and Cancer types
Infection is one of the most common complications of cancer and cancer treatment. This is because cancer and cancer treatments can weaken the immune system for a period of time. More recently, infections with certain viruses, bacteria, and parasites have been recognized as risk factors for several types of cancer in humans. People with cancer who are treated with chemotherapy are more likely to get infections. The immune system helps our body protect itself from getting an infection. Cancer and chemotherapy can damage this system by reducing the number of infection-fighting white blood cells. Infections in cancer patients are often treated according to the germ that is causing them. Anti-infectives are drugs used to prevent or treat infections, for example: Antibiotics (sometimes more than one at the same time) are used to treat bacterial infections. Anti-fungal drugs are used to treat fungal infections. Inflammation is considered a hallmark of cancer. There is evidence that inflammation may both promote and constrain tumors. Inflammation can become chronic if the cause of the inflammation persists or certain control mechanisms in charge of shutting down the process fail. When these inflammatory responses become chronic, cell mutation and proliferation can result, often creating an environment that is conducive to the development of cancer. Cancers are named for the area in which they begin and the type of cell they are made of, even if they spread to other parts of the body. There are also several clinical terms used for certain general types of cancer. Carcinoma, this type of cancer affects organs and glands, such as the lungs, breasts, pancreas and skin. Sarcoma, this cancer affects soft or connective tissues, such as muscle, fat, bone, cartilage or blood vessels. Leukemia is a cancer of the bone marrow, which creates blood cells. Melanoma and Lymphoma, are cancers of the immune system.

Cancer and Public Health
Cancer is a large group of diseases that can start in almost any organ or tissue of the body when abnormal cells grow uncontrollably, go beyond their usual boundaries to invade adjoining parts of the body and/or spread to other organs. The latter process is called metastasizing and is a major cause of death from cancer. Cancer is the second leading cause of death globally. Lung, prostate, colorectal, stomach and liver cancer are the most common types of cancer in men, while breast, colorectal, lung, cervical and thyroid cancer are the most common among women. The cancer burden continues to grow globally, exerting tremendous physical, emotional and financial strain on individuals, families, communities and health systems. Many health systems in low- and middle-income countries are least prepared to manage this burden, and large numbers of cancer patients globally do not have access to timely quality diagnosis and treatment. The reality of cancer lies somewhere between the public health ideal of perfect prevention and the depressing stochastics of bad luck. Current research suggests that at least half of cancer cases estimates range from 30 percent to upward of 70 percent could be prevented by applying what we already know. The other half of cancer cases including the elusive and often deadly types often caught too late to make a difference, such as ovarian, pancreatic, and brain tumors could be detected and potentially even prevented far earlier if basic science and promising diagnostic technologies received the sustained government support, they need.
