Jubilee BOD: A Place for Meeting and New Partnerships

The National Institute for Cancer Research once again took part in Brno Oncology Days (BOD), which celebrated its 50th edition this year. The jubilee event provided a platform not only for sharing the latest findings and interdisciplinary discussion, but also for establishing new partnerships. NICR supported the traditional Glio Meeting dedicated to brain tumours and, during the conference itself, signed a memorandum of cooperation with the Úsměv nejen pro Kryštofa Foundation.

Collaboration


In addition to several large European and Czech scientific infrastructures, the National Institute for Cancer Research will also cooperate with various university hospitals, pharmaceutic or biotechnological companies, patient organisations, and other partners.
