SUMMARY:ICIC20 Virtual Conference: 20th International Conference on Integrated Care
DESCRIPTION: \n  \nThe ICIC20 Virtual Conference is a relaunch of the 20th International Conference on Integrated Care that was due to take place in Šibenik\, Croatia in April. The new edition will take place as a virtual offer bringing over 150 hours of digital integrated care content presented through the innovative Events OnAir portal. The ICIC20 Virtual Conference will allow connection from anywhere in the world\, removing the cost and time associated barriers involved in attending the physical conference. \nIFIC and our ICIC20 Virtual Conference !s co-hosted by the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Croatia\, the City of Zagreb\, Health Center Zagreb – Centar\, the Croatian Academy of Sciences and Arts\, University of Zagreb\, Libertas International University and the Catholic University of Croatia. \nOral presentations\, workshops and the poster display have been redesigned across 4 themed days to take place on 9\, 16\, 23 and 30 September. Delegates can choose to attend all 4 conference days or select individual days to best suit diary and other commitments. All content from the conference days are available post event on demand. \n• Wednesday\, 9 September – Shared Vision and Values for Integrated Care\n• Wednesday\, 16 September – Implementation Science and Digital Solutions\n• Wednesday\, 23 September – Improving experience of health and care systems for ALL\n• Wednesday\, 30 September – Improving Integrated Care outcomes across the whole life course \nThe Virtual Conference will be attended by over 1000 integrated care experts representing over 80 countries. The portal allows delegates to enter the portal using one simple log in\, where they can access the full programme of plenaries\, breakouts\, networking and exhibition space opportunities\, and then choose to join their preferred sessions just like at a physical event.

SUMMARY:Quality and Safety Network Webinar: Development of Regional Strategy for Patient Safety improvement
DESCRIPTION: \nThe next Quality and Safety Network webinar organised by HOPE and PAQS asbl scheduled on 6 October at 15.00 CET will describe the developments of a Regional Strategy for Patient safety improvement.  \nThroughout the world\, we see a global movement that wants to raise awareness about the urgent health safety situation that is underlined in research and being discussed at many international conventions. Major international organisations\, such as the OECD\, WHO and the World Bank\, have also (re)emphasised this issue. An OECD report from March 2017 defines a hard reality: in OECD countries\, on average\, an adverse event will occur for 10% of hospital admissions. \nTherefore\, many countries have decided to work on this issue by developing national and regional strategies for patient safety improvement. This is the case\, for example\, in Switzerland\, England\, France\, Belgium\, the United States and Canada. The next webinar of the Quality & Safety network will focus on an ongoing initiative in Belgium. \nThe objectives of the webinar are to: \n– Underline the importance of patient safety improvement strategies at regional level \n\n– Present how a Regional Strategy for Patient Safety Improvement was developed \n  \nSpeaker : \n– Denis Herbaux\, CEO\, PAQS asbl \n  \n\nRegister\n

SUMMARY:Cancer & Immunotherapy:  Greatest challenges and novel therapies inspiring European citizens
DESCRIPTION: \nHOPE joins the FEAM European Biomedical Policy Forum in the organisation – with the support of Cancer Research UK – of the online annual lecture 2020 on “Cancer & Immunotherapy: greatest challenges and novel therapies inspiring European citizens”. \nThe event will be held on the 17 November 2020\, 10 am – 12.30 pm (CET). With a unique European focus on cancer research\, the aim of this annual lecture is to discuss progress and new emerging treatments to better manage and eradicate cancer. This event will also explore how policymakers can help to support research into novel therapies\, and ensure the newest treatments reach patients across Europe. \nFor more information >> \nProgramme >> \nRegistration form >> \n \nContext: \nOn July 2019\, the Commissioner for Research\, Science and Innovation – Carlos Moedas -officially launched the work on five major European research and innovation missions that will be part of Horizon Europe. These new European R&I missions aim to deliver solutions to some of the greatest challenges facing our world\, including cancer. In addition\, DG SANTE are producing proposals for Europe’s Beating Cancer Plan\, the Commission’s policy agenda to improve cancer control and care. \nCancer is a complex disease in which cells in a specific tissue are no longer fully responsive to the signals within the tissue that regulate cellular differentiation\, survival\, proliferation and death. As result\, these cells accumulate and invade other tissues\, causing local damages and inflammation. There are over 200 different types of cancer. In this context\, the immuno-oncology is a type of cancer treatment that uses the power of the body’s own immune system to prevent\, control\, and eliminate cancer. Also known as immunotherapy\, this innovative treatment comes in a variety of forms\, including targeted antibodies\, cancer vaccines\, adoptive cell transfer\, tumor-infecting viruses\, checkpoint inhibitors\, cytokines\, and adjuvants. Some immunotherapy treatments also use genetic engineering to enhance immune cells’ cancer-fighting capabilities (CAR-T cells). \n \nAbout the FEAM European Biomedical Policy Forum \nThe FEAM European Biomedical Policy Forum provides a platform for discussion on key policy issues for the biomedical community. The Forum is an initiative from the Federation of European Academies of Medicine (FEAM). It aims to bring together representatives from academia\, research charities\, industry\, European and national trade associations and professional bodies\, regulators\, public health bodies\, and patient and consumers groups. \n
