The ASPEN CANCER CONFERENCE, a series of yearly meetings conceived by Drs. Benjamin F. Trump and Curtis C. Harris, was begun in 1985. The Conference has continued to emphasize the relationships between toxicity and carcinogenesis and the identification of novel strategies in cancer prevention, diagnosis, and therapy. It is evident that new paradigms are needed to explain that an increasing number of mutagenic and non-mutagenic agents result in carcinogenesis, that cell injury and death, repair, and inflammation are constant companions of cancer
