title: Cancer of the skin in the next century.
abstract: One can confidently predict that the 21st century will be a span of intense activity in unraveling the precise molecular and biochemical events that lead to the various forms of cutaneous cancers. These discoveries will lead to new approaches in our therapeutic armamentarium that currently do not exist. Eventually, the incidence rates and mortality rates from cancers of the skin will markedly decline--the finite goal of all the combined endeavors of the scientific and practicing medical community.
