The HNCIG was established to provide a forum for discussion of the basic and clinical aspects of the biology and treatment of head and neck cancer. The group moderators are Alfredo Molinolo (NIDCR) and Carter VanWaes (NIDCD).  The goals of the HNCIG include:

• Notification of lectures or conferences, both within the D.C. area and outside, of potential interest to members.
• Sponsorship of lectures, workshops or poster sessions related to head and neck cancer biology.
• Facilitation of communication between individuals at the NIH and the extramural community with similar research interests.
