A look back at the 16th Scientific Days of the cancéropôle Nord-Ouest

From Wednesday May 15 to Friday May 17, 2024, the 16th CNO (Cancéropôle Nord-Ouest) Scientific Days were held in Deauville. This annual meeting is a must for researchers and clinicians from the North-West inter-region, which includes the Hauts de France and Normandy regions. Professionals from the Centre Baclesse presented 2 posters.

A forum for researchers and clinicians

Each year, these days are an opportunity to :

• To provide an update on current research within the scientific areas, and to present the NOC's strategic orientations to the scientific community.
• To present work funded under emerging and structuring calls for projects.
• Highlight the work of young researchers through a dedicated session, with prizes awarded for the best oral communications and posters.

They are also an opportunity to focus on a theme of interest through prestigious talks given by outside speakers.
