Masterclass in Clinical Oncology - Autumn edition

27.09.2024  -  12.11.2024

HYBRID EVENT

MASTERCLASS

Description

Chairs: J. But, SL – T. Cufer, SL – N. Pavlidis, GR
Host Chair: V. Guarneri, IT

Aims, objectives and teaching format

The ESO Masterclass is a full immersion, clinical oriented event designed for medical and clinical oncologists with 3-4 years experience in oncology who would like to receive further training on the treatment of tumours from a multidisciplinary point of view. The programme exposes participants to a full spectrum of issues in clinical oncology and to practice-oriented training.

The Masterclass will:

  • provide you with an update on all solid tumours (breast, lung, gynaecological, gastro-intestinal, genitourinary)
  • give you the opportunity to spend 3 ½ days together with colleagues and faculty members from around Europe and beyond, to exchange ideas and build your oncology network
  • give you the chance to present and discuss a clinical case with top level international experts and take part in interactive workshops on Communication skills, How to deal with sex and intimacy with cancer patients, Burnout and Ethics

The Masterclass is divided into two educational parts:

  1. Pre-recorded online lectures: available 6 weeks before the in-person event to give each participant the opportunity to prepare themselves in their own time and at their own pace.
  2. In-person event: 3-and-half-day ‘retreat’, giving participants the opportunity to begin building an international oncology network as well as the chance to interact with renowned faculty in an informal environment.

Some selected participants will be matched to a faculty member/mentor to prepare together the clinical case to be discussed in plenary session during the in-person event.

The Masterclass is held entirely in English and fluency in English is necessary for admission. 60 candidates will be selected.

 

Information

The Masterclass will take place in San Servolo (Venice), Italy.

LANGUAGE

The Masterclass will be held in English and translation will not be provided.

     ESCO - The ESO College
