This document specifies the public website for United Scientific Group (USG) presenting the 12th International Conference on Cancer Research & Drug Development, held October 13–15, 2027 in Houston, TX, at the Sheraton North Houston at George Bush Intercontinental, Texas.
The product intent is a single, authoritative public information surface where a scientific and clinical audience can read the conference identity, its dates, its host city, and its venue. The site is a presentation surface for USG and the conference; it exists to communicate the event's exact facts with the precision and quiet status appropriate to serious cancer research and drug development work.
The audience is twofold: Conference attendees — scientists and clinicians who want to learn about the conference and read its dates, Houston location, and venue — and Conference organizers — the USG party that presents and publishes the event title, dates, city, and venue to a public audience.
The delivered system is a public, no-account website. It consists of a React frontend that renders the Landing page, a shared FastAPI backend process that serves application APIs and domain modules, and a MariaDB database provisioned for application-owned persistent data. The Landing page is publicly reachable with no access requirement; no identity, sign-in, or account state is part of the accepted product.
Current accepted behavior is presentational and informational only:
Both accepted personas — Conference attendee and Conference organizer — interact with the same public Landing surface: the attendee reads the published facts, and the organizer's published facts are what the page presents. No registration, submission, ticketing, payment, program scheduling, speaker directory, or account capability is part of the accepted scope.
Removed from scope
The website is a first-party, publicly accessible presentation surface owned by the application. Its single destination, Landing, is reachable by anyone with no access requirement, and it carries the complete accepted content: USG's identity, the conference title, the dates October 13–15, 2027, the city Houston, TX, and the venue Sheraton North Houston at George Bush Intercontinental, Texas.
Because the accepted product is public and ephemeral — a reader arrives, reads the event facts, and leaves — there is no application-owned identity, no sign-in, no session continuity, and no protected destination. The organizer's role is expressed through the published content itself rather than through an administrative surface; no authoring, editing, or content-management interface is accepted. The backend and database are provisioned infrastructure supporting the application; they do not by themselves introduce domain entities, accounts, or workflows beyond serving the public page.
Everything in this document is current. No future-horizon capabilities have been accepted.

Typography
clamp() from 44px mobile to 96px desktop.Shape language: circular gauge rings and thin ruled data rows; small 4px radii on panels; hard-edged full-width bands. No rounded pill buttons.
Layout: asymmetric grid with a wide left data column and a narrow right rail for venue facts; each section opens with a numbered instrument label.
Imagery: macro material textures and dark lab photography with a single amber light; topographic line overlays behind data rows.
Avoid: gradient blobs, glass cards, bright white ground, rounded pill buttons, stock photos of smiling people, blue or indigo accents.
Readability rule: headlines, wordmarks, labels, numbers, and controls stay entirely inside the viewport and their containers at 375px, 768px, and 1280px, wrapping or scaling to fit; decoration may bleed or overlap but never covers readable text or controls.
The public entry is a full-bleed dark graphite instrument face. On the right, a large circular gauge ring renders October 13–15, 2027 as three tick marks with a single amber needle — the conference dates read as a dial reading. On the left, a wide data column stacks the condensed uppercase headline at 44px–96px over aligned label/value rows: Houston, TX and Sheraton North Houston at George Bush Intercontinental, Texas, separated by hairline champagne rules. Each section opens with a numbered micro-label in a ruled row, like an instrument bezel. Topographic line overlays sit behind the data rows as texture only. The composition recomposes only the accepted facts — USG, the conference title, the dates, the city, and the venue — into a precision readout.
