Abstract

By selecting, for discussion, some aspects of oncogenesis in human acute leukemia, we hope to focus attention on areas of current interest which promise to provide important advances in our knowledge and understanding of human neoplasia, and, in time, may lead us nearer to the goal of disease control and eventual eradication.
