Papers are invited on the following aspects of cancers arising in the lip, tongue, mouth, salivary glands, pharynx, and the related bones, soft tissues, and lymph glands. (1) Natural history of oral cancer and pre cancer, basic pathology, mestastatic mechanisms. (2) Cellular and molecular markers for diagnosis and prognosis, oncogenes, viruses, growth factors, and adhesion molecules. (3) Epidemiology, risk factors, prevention, screening, and intervention. (4) Advances in imaging and other functional diagnostic modalities. (5) Surgical advances, lasers, photo dynamic therapy, cyro surgery, micro vascular surgery. (6) Multimodality treatment, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, gene therapy. (7) Advances in reconstruction and rehabilitation, grafts, alloplasty, bone and connective tissue biology, osteoradionecrosis.
