Stimați colegi,
Neuro-oncologia reprezintă un domeniu multidisciplinar esențial, dedicat tratamentului tumorilor cerebrale și prezervării calității vieții pacienților. Complexitatea acestor patologii impune o abordare integrată, în care colaborarea între specialități și armonizarea protocoalelor de diagnostic și tratament sunt fundamentale.
În acest context, am deosebita onoare de a vă invita să participați la cea de-a IV-a ediție a Conferinței de Neuro-Oncologie – Care4Cancer (Comprehensive Advancements in Research and Exchanges for Neuro-Oncology), cu tema „Progrese cuprinzătoare în cercetare și schimburi pentru neuro-oncologie”, care va avea loc în perioada 14–17 octombrie 2026, la Hotel Mercure Arsenal Sibiu, România.
Conferința își propune să ofere un cadru multidisciplinar de întâlnire pentru toți specialiștii implicați în îngrijirea pacienților cu tumori cerebrale, facilitând schimbul de cunoștințe și consolidarea colaborărilor internaționale. Programul științific, construit pe baza experienței edițiilor anterioare, va aborda provocările actuale din neuro-oncologie, cu accent pe progresele recente în cercetare și practica clinică.
Succesul primelor trei ediții ne motivează să continuăm dezvoltarea acestui eveniment. Colaborarea noastră constantă cu Mayo Clinic Jacksonville (SUA) a contribuit semnificativ la nivelul științific al conferinței, iar și în acest an avem onoarea de a-i avea alături pe distinși invitați internaționali. Îl menționăm în mod special pe Prof. Dr. Alfredo Quiñones-Hinojosa, personalitate marcantă a neurochirurgiei mondiale.
De asemenea, vor participa specialiști de renume din țară și din străinătate, reprezentând multiple domenii implicate în patologia sistemului nervos central.
Conferința este deschisă tuturor profesioniștilor din domeniul sănătății, precum și studenților interesați de neuro-oncologie.
Informații suplimentare privind programul științific și organizarea evenimentului vor fi disponibile în curând pe site-ul oficial al conferinței.
Vă invităm să vă alăturați acestui demers academic și profesional și ne-am bucura de prezența dumneavoastră la Sibiu.
Cu deosebită considerație,
Șef lucrări Dr. Claudiu Matei
