title: Keystone symposia 40th season: microRNAs and noncoding RNAs in cancer.
abstract: This year's 40th season of Keystone symposia meetings was held in Banff, Alberta, Canada, on February 11-16 and sponsored by Astellas Pharma and Regulus Therapeutics. The meeting was organized by Gregory Hannon, Curtis Harris, and Martine Roussel and centered on microRNAs (miRNA), noncoding RNAs, and cancer. The meeting was grouped around the following topical areas: miRNA mechanisms, oncogenesis, immune response, angiogenesis and metastasis, cancer biomarkers, stem cells, and therapeutics. This report highlights findings and concepts presented during this meeting.
