Abstract:
Colorectal Cancer (CRC) is driven by oncogenic mutations that deregulate signaling networks governing cell turnover in the colon epithelium. These two lectures give an overview of cell signal transduction, clinical features and cell heterogeneity in CRC.

Diagnostic standard procedures in the Institute of Pathology
In this session you will get to know the general workflow in diagnostic pathology, how samples are processed until the pathologist makes the diagnosis and how this affects the therapy of the patient. Taking colorectal cancer as an example, I will give a quick introduction to histology using standard H&E stainings and immunostainings.
