Understanding Clinical Research in Cancer: A Two-Day Course for Cancer Patient Advocates

Venue: Brussels, Belgium

This course is designed specifically for European patient group leaders with a minimum of three years’ experience in cancer patient advocacy/patient support/patient information provision. The goal of this course is to provide high level cancer patient advocates with a stimulating and challenging two-day training experience leading to a much greater understanding of the whole clinical trials process. Participation in this course will enable cancer patient advocates to learn more about cancer biology; personalized cancer treatment and care; the organisation of clinical research; and very importantly, how patient groups can become more involved in the design and implementation of clinical trials. Participants should have good English skills. A networking dinner on Friday, 28th February will also be included.
