This event comes as the European Union transitions into a new mandate, with fresh leadership shaping future legislative and policy priorities. We will bring together policymakers, regional health authorities, patient advocates, and healthcare providers to explore how Precision Oncology (PO) can be advanced at local levels by leveraging key EU initiatives and projects. Through insightful case studies and expert interventions, we will focus on collaborative efforts needed to:
- Raise awareness and build infrastructure
- Develop a skilled workforce
- Ensure timely access to care
- Secure sustainable funding for PO implementation across EU Member States
Together, we aim to improve cancer care and patient outcomes across Europe.
