The rapid advance of science and technology in human medicine has opened huge new opportunities in prevention, diagnosis and therapy.

The application of these advances to cancer medicine is essential for human health.

The Mediterranean School of Oncology aims at providing health care to professionals, i.e., physicians, nurses and investigators who are involved in management of cancer patients, with the best possible deepening of their oncological skills in a specific area or organ site.

Additionally, there are training courses designed to fulfil the educational needs of those who have only recently approached cancer medicine and health professionals who are not frequently dealing with cancer patients.
