The Commission together with the European Society of Radiology and EUCAIM is organising an event exploring how the European Cancer Imaging Initiative harnesses health data and Artificial Intelligence to advance the fight against cancer.
Two years after the launch of the European Cancer Imaging Initiative, Member States and stakeholders from research, innovation and healthcare organisations, will explore perspectives for the Initiative’s contribution to advancing trustworthy AI tools for precision oncology and its role in the future European Health Data Space.
At the heart of this Initiative is the Cancer Image Europe Infrastructure under development by the EUCAIM project. By 2026, the infrastructure will provide researchers, innovators and clinicians with secure access to extensive cancer image datasets, unlocking the potential for AI tools to detect cancer sooner and faster, and treat the patients more accurately.
At the event, EUCAIM will share major milestones, introduce new project partners, and discuss progress towards the establishment of an EUCAIM EDIC (European Digital Infrastructure Consortium).
Target audience: This event aims to bring together key figures in the digital transformation of healthcare across EU Member States, including representatives from health ministries, digital health agencies, hospitals, and cancer research institutes. The event also welcomes researchers and SMEs working with imaging data to gain and provide valuable insights on AI innovation in cancer diagnostics and treatment.

The YoPA project, ‘a youth-centred preventive action approach towards co-created implementation of socially and physically activating environmental interventions’ obtained funding from Horizon Europe’s Health Cluster. The project addresses the multifaceted challenges of physical inactivity and health inequalities through a unique participatory approach. The project places teenagers between 12 and 18 years old in vulnerable situations at the forefront of the intervention process. The Institute of Tropical Medicine is a partner in the project and will conduct a Realist Evaluation to understand how youth co-creation contributes to improved adolescent health and well-being in four cities in Denmark, Netherlands, Nigeria and South Africa. By integrating its results and sharing its approach in an open access Toolbox, ITM aims to contribute to fostering sustainable, youth-led solutions for healthier urban environments.
