Newly Implementable Programmes for Prostate, Lung and Gastric Cancer Screening
Three years ago, the European Union reshaped the agenda on cancer screening. The goal? Save lives through early detection, with a focus on prostate, lung, and gastric cancer.
How? Launch a series of projects – PRAISE-U, SOLACE, and TOGAS – to pilot and prepare for the implementation of new screening programmes which account for the needs of individuals and their different backgrounds. Now it's time to assess the progress and turn pilots into programmes.
This is a unique event for the cancer community. Make sure to be part of it.
17 & 18 February - Brussels & online
Mark your calendars now! Registrations open soon.

Cancer in a Changing Global Landscape:
Challenges & Commitments
In an era of political disruption and uncertainty, the European Cancer Summit 2025 convenes the broad cancer community to chart a new path forward.
These extraordinary times call for extraordinary commitment. As budgets tighten and investments in health care come under intense scrutiny, the need to maximise every euro and drive innovation has never been greater. The cancer community must not only learn from past successes but also adapt rapidly to safeguard the future of patient care.
Unity is now more vital than ever, and nowhere is that unity better realised than at the biggest cancer policy event in Europe.
The European Cancer Summit takes place on 19-20 November, in Brussels & online. Registrations are now open!

TRANSiTION Stakeholder Forum Report
The digital transformation of cancer care presents a pivotal opportunity to enhance early diagnosis, personalise treatment, and improve patient outcomes. Yet, the success of these innovations hinges on the digital readiness of healthcare professionals. The TRANSITION project, co-funded by the European Commission, addresses this challenge by bridging the digital skills gap among clinical and non-clinical cancer care professionals across Europe.
The TRANSITION initiative is a multi-stakeholder, EU-wide effort led by the Cyprus University of Technology, involving 24 partners across 14 Member States. It aims to upskill and reskill oncology professionals through the development and deployment of a structured training curriculum consisting of 11 comprehensive modules. These modules cover topics ranging from digital communication and remote patient monitoring to AI in healthcare and digital decision-making.
On 9 October 2024, a dedicated Stakeholder Forum brought together policymakers, practitioners, and researchers to inform and refine the project’s approach.
