Invitation Comprehensive Advancements
in Research and Exchanges
for Neuro-Oncology

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 15–17 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

LISTEN TO THE International Speakers

Anca Ligia Grosu, MD, PhD

Radiation Oncologist

Anca Ligia Grosu, MD, PhD

Radiation Oncologist

Director of the Radiation Oncology department, University Medical Center, Freiburg
Member of the Executive Committee of the German Neurooncology Association
Chair of the Hans-Langendorff Committee

Anca-Ligia Grosu, MD, PhD, Medical Director of the Department of Radiation Oncology at the University Medical Center Freiburg, was recently awarded the prestigious Alfred Breit Prize for her outstanding scientific research in the field of integrating medical/biological imaging into the radiotherapy planning process. The Alfred Breit Prize is awarded annually by the German Society for Radiation Oncology (Deutschen Gesellschaft für Radioonkologie - DEGRO) and is one of the most prestigious scientific awards in the field.

Dr. Grosu and her team developed a number of new methods that allow for improved precision in radiation therapy using biological imaging. Their research opens up an important pathway to personalized cancer therapy, enabling more precise targeting of radiation and better protection of healthy tissue around tumors.

Dr. Grosu studied medicine at the University of Cluj-Napoca, Romania, and then worked at the Rechts der Isar Clinic of the Technical University of Munich (1990-2006). After a year of research at Harvard Medical School in Boston, USA, she became the Director of the Department of Radiology and Radiation Oncology at the University Medical Center Freiburg in 2007. In 2018, she was elected a member of the German National Academy of Sciences Leopoldina, and in January 2020, she became the Vice-Chair of the Leopoldina's Section of Radiology.

The Alfred Breit Prize is named after one of the pioneers of modern radiotherapy, Professor Dr. Alfred Breit, and has been awarded annually by DEGRO since 2012. The prize is awarded to recognize outstanding scientific research in the field of radiation oncology that is expected to make significant contributions to cancer therapy.
