EORTC’s presence at ESMO 2024

EORTC’s presence at this year’s ESMO Congress 2024, taking place from 13 to 17 September in Barcelona, is particularly noteworthy. We will be presenting seven abstracts, three of which are proffered papers to be delivered as oral presentations, alongside four poster displays. One of the proffered papers will be presented during the prestigious Presidential Symposium. Additionally, we will participate in four educational sessions, one of which is specifically designed for young oncologists.

Further details can be found in the table below.
