The main focus of the EUROGIN 2018 congress concerns the perspective of eliminating HPV induced diseases. Universal immunization of the entire population is a tremendeous opportunity to reduce the burden of cervical ,ano-genital and oral cancer worldwide. Elimination of HPV related cancer is not an unrealistic perspective.
The program includes the presentation of preliminary results which underline the long-term protection of the HPV vaccine against invasive cervical cancer. These findings open also the perspective of efficient protection against other HPV-associated cancers.
Over four days the EUROGIN congress will offer a variety of learning opportunities from which attendees can choose: training courses, workshops, scientific sessions, clinical sessions, free communications and poster presentations.
In addition to the international program, the “Workshop Lusófono” in Portuguese language, with its program designed in collaboration with the major scientific societies, will offer a comprehensive overview of the latest findings in HPV-related diseases for delegates from Portuguese speaking countries. Precision-based cancer screening and prevention is now possible. New technology and risk algorithms allow us to increase the precision of screening and the sensitiviy of existing tools for early detection and immunization.
