Dr Jean-Jacques Feige is the president of the French society of angiogenesis and director of the INSERM (National institute for health and medical research) department in Grenoble, France. Dr Gilles Pagès, Phd, is deputy President of the French society of angiogenesis and runs an Inserm departement at the Institute of research for Cancer and Aging in Centre Lacassagne of Nice. Dr Fabrice Soncin is the former President of the French society of angiogenesis and is a scientist at the Lille Biology institute in Lille (INSERM). Most of the contributors are prominent members of the French society of angiogenesis or international researchers who actively contribute to the Annual Meetings of the French Society of angiogenesis.
