Invitation Comprehensive Advancements in Research and Exchanges for Neuro-Oncology
Dear friends,
Este o mare plăcere să vă invit să luați parte la a 3-a ediție a Conferinței Internaționale „Comprehensive Advancements in Research and Exchanges for Neuro-Oncology”, CARE4NEURO-ONCOLOGY, organizată de Universitatea Lucian Blaga din Sibiu, Facultatea de Medicină, cu sprijinul Colegiului Medicilor din România și MedLife. Evenimentul va avea loc în perioada 23-25 octombrie 2025, în Sibiu, România.
Ediția anterioară a acestei conferințe a fost un succes, reunind peste 350 de participanți și 51 de vorbitori de renume internațional, iar acest lucru ne-a motivat să continuăm această tradiție și în 2025.
Obiectivul principal al ediției din acest an este de a pune accent pe sesiuni pluridisciplinare, oferind o platformă unică pentru colaborare într-o varietate de domenii medicale implicate în diagnosticul și tratamentul tumorilor cerebrale, spinale sau al nervilor periferici, la adulți și copii. Prin acest demers, dorim să facilităm schimbul de cunoștințe, idei și bune practici, subliniind importanța unui management holistic al bolilor neuro-oncologice.
Ediția precedentă a reunit experți din oncologie, anatomo-patologie, radioterapie, neurochirurgie, reabilitare medicală, psihiatrie, medicină internă, îngrijiri paliative, terapie a durerii, anestezie și terapie intensivă, ORL, oftalmologie, neurologie sau radiologie, oferind o perspectivă integrată asupra provocărilor și progreselor în acest domeniu.
Suntem convinși că medicina modernă este o știință multidisciplinară și că tratamentele oncologice trebuie personalizate și adaptate fiecărui pacient. Sub acest principiu, vă invităm să ni se alăturați și să contribuiți la succesul acestei conferințe.
Conferința va avea loc în aceeași locație ca și ediția anterioară, la Universitatea Lucian Blaga din Sibiu, Facultatea de Medicină, Aula Magna, care oferă condiții excepționale pentru desfășurarea unor astfel de evenimente.
Pe lângă programul științific de înaltă calitate, participanții sunt invitați să exploreze orașul Sibiu, o bijuterie multiculturală a Transilvaniei, unde tradiția și modernismul se întrepătrund în mod fericit.
Așteptăm cu nerăbdare să vă avem alături la evenimentul nostru, dedicat progreselor în neuro-oncologie.
Warmly,

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.
