The gathering of researchers investigating fundamental pathobiology of ovarian cancer and the clinicians who treat patients with this insidious disease is paramount to meeting the challenges we face. Since 2002 the Canadian Conference on Ovarian Cancer Research held every two years has served this essential purpose. The objectives of this conference have been to disseminate new information arising from the most recent ovarian cancer research and identify the most pressing challenges we still face as scientists and clinicians. This is best accomplished through direct encounters and exchanges of innovative ideas among colleagues and trainees from the realms of basic science and clinical disciplines. This meeting has and continues to successfully facilitate rapid networking and establish new collaborations from across Canada. This year more guest speakers and participants from other countries have extended the breadth of the research on ovarian cancer that was discussed at the meeting. This report summarizes the key findings presented at the fifth biennial Canadian Conference on Ovarian Cancer Research held in Toronto Ontario and includes the important issues and challenges we still face in the years ahead to make a significant impact on this devastating disease. Introduction Held in Toronto from May 15th - 18th 2010 in partnership with the Society of Gynecologic Oncology of Canada GOC and Ovarian Cancer Canada OCC the 5th Canadian .
