Welcome to the 10th meeting of the Medicon Valley Alliance Oncology Network on 8th of December 2020.
Medicon Valley Alliance, together with Lund University and the University of Copenhagen, has the pleasure to invite you to the 10th MVA Oncology Network meeting.
This event will focus on transitioning towards personalised medicine for cancer patients by combining genomic, proteomic and clinical information.
To date, the disease presentation in cancer patients constitutes great challenges to the healthcare system and tumour heterogeneity often leads to drug resistance and relapse of the disease. A combined approach of genomics, proteomics and clinical data will allow today’s healthcare to enter an era of personalised medicine.
Please join us and learn about the successful research in the Öresund region and a discussion about further collaboration between academia, healthcare and industry within the field.
Due to the current Covid-19 situation in Denmark and Sweden this meeting is delivered in a shorter webinar format instead of a regular networking meeting.

The network
MVA Oncology Network is a professional and social network for professors, PIs and corporate level executives from the regional oncology eco-system.
