ESO is proposing a comprehensive course for oncology trainees in Europe intended to bridge the gap in education between courses for students and ESO’s well-known Masterclasses. The course aims to provide orientation to the guiding principles of multidisciplinary oncological management and life as a modern oncologist.
Although some of the principles underlying oncology practice are similar to those in other branches of medicine, sub-specialisation has reduced the exposure of medical students and junior residents to oncological concepts and practice. New oncology trainees face a number of specific challenges. These include navigation of an extensive curriculum with no clear starting point, a rapidly evolving clinical landscape, and increasing clinical demands. During training, residents must also strategically plan their careers, manage any academic focus, and maintain a healthy work-life balance.
The course is divided into 2 parts:
- Part 1: participants will be asked to view pre-recorded lectures which were recorded during the 1st edition of the course in Ljubljana, Slovenia in 2022 and will be made available on the e-Eso website.
- Part 2: in-person event
In collaboration with the University of Medicine and Pharmacy "Carol Davila" Bucharest.

ESCO - The ESO College
Being selected to take part in this ESO Course is one of the ESO activities that gives participants eligibility to enroll in ESCO - the College of the European School of Oncology.
It also enables ESCO students to earn ESCO credits and therefore access more ESCO benefits.
Full and active participation in the Basic Principles in Oncology course earns participants 15 ESCO credits.

PARTICIPATION
Attendance is limited to 50 participants and admittance is by competitive application only. Priority will be given to applicants who have attended an ESO-ESMO course for medical students or the ESO-ESSO-ESTRO course for medical students.
Successful applicants are granted free registration.
