Artificial Intelligence in Cancer – Implementation and EU opportunities
Join us to explore the use of AI in oncology and possible EU opportunities!
We bring together national stakeholders within AI and Cancer to highlight key achievements in Norway and build momentum towards EU R&I collaborations within Horizon Europe, EU4Health and Digital Europe. The event kicks-off a thematic national network on AI and Cancer in relation to the newly established Cancer Mission Hub in Norway. The hub gathers policy makers, patient organisations, citizens, industry, health, and research professionals to engage in the Europe’s beating cancer plan and Mission on Cancer.
