Core Faculty: J. Schirren, DE - U. Teichgräber, DE - J. Jassem, PL - A. Lukashenko, UA - M. Hoyer, DK - C. Verslype, BE - M. Wojtukiewicz, PL - I. Shchepotin, UA - C. Garbe, DE - R. Willemze, NL



The Conference offers plenary lectures delivered by the leading experts in the field, focusing on the state-of-the- art therapies and concluding with take-home messages. Lectures will cover the current standards of modern oncology, with special attention paid to practical aspects of effective cancer treatment.
On Friday, 10 May, an interdisciplinary course will be held for physicians specializing in the diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer – radiologists, surgeons, and oncologists. The lectures will be focused on problem-solving in daily practice. Other clinically-oriented issues will be discussed on that day, too.
On Saturday, 11 May, the leading European experts, invited jointly by ESO and Medycyna Praktyczna – Onkologia, will deliver lectures on practical clinical issues, such as management of patients with liver tumors (primary and metastatic), new strategies in advanced gastric cancer patients and in breast cancer treatment in the light of the updated Sankt Gallen 2013 Conference, etc.
The lectures on both days will be interactive – an electronic system will allow participants to answer the questions, solve the quizzes and join the speakers in clinical case discussions.
The Conference will be entirely in English (or in other languages, but simultaneously translated into English).
