Join over 150 global leaders in oncology at The Economist Events' second annual War on Cancer conference, on December 6th in London. Explore solutions to the mismatch in progress and delivery in cancer care across Europe. The event will seek to find answers to questions such as: Should tobacco taxes be used to fund cancer care? Why do some European nations with similar health care systems have such striking differences in cancer survival rates? What is the true potential of immuno-therapy? What were the key learnings from the 2016 World Cancer Congress?
Contributing to this discussion will be speakers from the UK Government, Public Health England, the European Commission, the University of Oxford, Macmillan Cancer Support, European Medicines Agency, the Institute of Cancer Policy and the Institute of Cancer Research London. Plus, hear from the chief executive of Philips and senior business figures at Pfizer and EMD Serono.
