Delivering the vision of personalised medicine in oncology across the EU
Dear Partners,
We warmly invite you to attend the virtual event “Delivering the vision of personalised medicine in oncology across the EU”. The event is directly linked to the implementation of Europe’s Beating Cancer Plan.
One of Europe’s Beating Cancer Plan flagship initiatives is the ‘Cancer Diagnostic and Treatment for All initiative’ – Flagship 6. It aims to leverage genomic technologies to improve cancer diagnosis and treatment and help reduce unequal access to personalised medicine throughout the EU.
