For several days in September, in Rhodes Greece, the elite of the oncology community--academia and industry--will gather at the 33rd   congress of the International Society of Oncodevelopmental Biology and Medicine (ISOBM). This prestigious event brings together the best and brightest of the global oncology community and, through several presentations regarding its RECAF? technology, BioCurex will delineate its science (BOCX.PK) to many potential research and licensing partners from around the world. Three members of BioCurex's impressive scientific advisory board, including CEO Ricardo Moro will present (release--with bio's-- below) on topics dealing with the company's proprietary RECAF? marker technology. Other presenters from the Advisory Board will be the highly regarded Dr. Philip Gold--whose work ushered in the modern era of human cancer marker research and diagnostics with his development of the CEA and PSA markers--the most employed cancer markers worldwide.  As well, Dr. Jose Uriel, a distinguished scientist with an impressive research and prolific publishing history will present " The Physiological Role of AFP and its Cell Receptors" (RECAF?). The ISOBM is one of the longest standing and best-reputed forums for cancer markers in the world and it publishes the journal "Tumor Biology". All of these high-level presentations will undoubtedly further educate peers both in academia and industry with the exciting and ongoing developments regarding BioCurex's research, testing, and future initiatives. With this amount of expertise in the same locale, there will likely be many opportunities to expand and expose the benefits of both RECAF? and BioCurex's applications to the attendees. Interestingly, one of the main sponsors of the Congress is Abbott Diagnostics (NYSE: ABT)--a BioCurex licensee. Needless to say, the association between the two companies, we believe, should open significant doors for both; given the potential of RECAF ? technology. Our indicators show that the shares may well be a bit oversold. There have been some violations of the .618 percent retracement level, and we would like to see this level hold. It's no secret that we'd like to see the shares off of the Pink Sheets, and feel that this and some other extraneous factors have worked to moderate the share action. That said, for long-term investors, accumulation at these levels and on dips continues to appear warranted. Let me review for a moment. We've followed this company for 18 months. In that time the price has gone from pennies to multiple dollars back to just above a dollar. The progress in both the research and corporate developments should well be the envy of every other smallcap biotech. The potential of this technology, in our opinion, is beyond amazing. We've said before and say again; BioCurex's technology has the potential to revolutionize the way cancer is detected, treated and managed. At full sail, it could well save millions of lives or, at the very least, vastly improve the survival odds for patients. An investment in BioCurex appears warranted for risk-oriented and, dare I say, prescient investors.   Press Release Source: BioCurex, Inc. Three BioCurex Scientists to Lecture at International Cancer Congress. RICHMOND, British Columbia, June 2, 2004. -- BioCurex Inc. (BOCX.PK - News) announced today that three members of its Scientific Advisory Board have been invited to make oral presentations at the 2005 meeting of the International Society of Oncodevelopmental Biology and Medicine (ISOBM) to be held in September 2005 in Rhodes, Greece. Dr. Jose Uriel, M.D., Ph.D. has worked at the Pasteur Institute and was research director of the prestigious CNRS in France. He also worked at the Laboratory of Immunology, NIH Bethesda, Maryland. He directed the Laboratory of Protein Chemistry at the French Research Cancer Institute of which he was later the director. He has received the prestigious Rosen award in cancer research and he is a laureate of the French National Academy of Medicine (Leon Berat prize). Dr. Uriel has published more than 220 scientific papers and written several chapters in books related to cancer research, cancer markers and the receptor for AFP (RECAF). His lecture for ISOBM 2005 is entitled: "The Physiological Role of AFP and its Cell Receptors" (RECAF).  Dr. Ricardo Moro, M.D., a founder of BioCurex was appointed President and CEO in May 2003. He discovered and pioneered the work on RECAF. He will lecture on the practical applications of RECAF for diagnosis and therapy. His presentation is entitled: "RECAF - a new tumor marker". Dr. Phil Gold, C.C., O.Q., M.D., Ph.D. attended McGill University where he obtained four degrees. His Ph.D. thesis title was "Carcinoembryonic Antigens (CEA) of the Human Digestive System" which, along with the description of alpha-fetoprotein (AFP), ushered in the modern era of human tumor marker research along with the diagnostic impact that this work has had over the past 35 years. The assay for CEA developed by Gold, together with PSA, have become the most used markers for human cancer diagnosis and monitoring worldwide. In recognition of his scientific contributions, Dr. Gold has been the recipient of many international awards and honors. He holds positions as physician-in-chief, Department of Medicine, The Montreal General Hospital; Douglas G. Cameron, professor of medicine, McGill University; professor, Departments of Physiology and Oncology, McGill University and the director of the McGill University Medical Clinic at The Montreal General Hospital. This year is the 40th anniversary for his discovery of CEA and the title of his ISOBM 2005 lecture is: "CEA - 40 years after" which will include a discussion on the future of cancer markers and RECAF. Dr. Moro stated: "I am thrilled at this opportunity, largely due to the considerable recognition by the congress organizers on Dr. Gold's life work and the importance of this new cancer marker. Oral presentations are prestigious and very coveted among scientists because they allow the address to a singular large audience. We anticipate a significant audience consisting of members of academia, who will likely be interested in collaborating with us, as well as representatives from corporations interested in doing business with BioCurex. This is the right path towards spreading the word on RECAF, engaging other scientists to work on it and trigger the interest of large biotech companies as we have done before." About ISOBM:  The International Society of Oncodevelopmental Biology and Medicine (ISOBM) originated in the early 1970's from the International Research Group for Carcinoembryonic Proteins. It is devoted to bridging the gap between basic science and clinical application. As such, the ISOBM provides a unique forum for discussion and development of novel approaches to clinical problems in cancer. As a society we aim to support good communication between scientific interests, clinicians and commercial groups during our annual meetings and through the ISOBM Antibody Workshops system. The ISOBM is one of the longest standing and best reputed forums for cancer markers in the world and it publishes the journal "Tumor Biology".
