[Practical tasks in cancer research (author's transl)]
Abstract
Particularly urgent tasks for practical cancer research are pointed out: (1) recognition of the multidisciplinary character of oncology, (2) placement of the cancer patient more than before in the focus of research, (3) the use of modern methods of genetics to specify the definition of a "disposition", (4) the intensification of investigations into the field of chemical carcinogenesis, since prevention of cancer diseases seems most likely in this sector, and (5) elaboration of practical experimental models for the study of chemotherapeutic possibilities
