ProgrammesThis call is open to scientific leaders in Europe keen to contribute to setting a strategic agenda of research priorities in cancer. This agenda will inform the launch of specific research funding programmes by the Mission on Cancer and will identify use cases to feed the European Federated Cancer Research Data Hub.
To achieve this, experts are encouraged to participate in one or more of the following research areas that have been identified: 1. cancer prevention, 2. early diagnosis, 3. sensitivity and resistance to therapy, 4. pediatric cancer, 5. cancer and ageing, 6. survivorship. Selected participants will be asked to provide input through online questionnaires and will be invited to join a face-to-face meeting in spring 2023, with travel expenses covered by 4.UNCAN.eu.
Interested to join? The necessary information on how to apply can be found here. Deadline for applications is 15 August 2022. Additional information can be found here.
Broader context: The Mission on Cancer Board and the European Beating Cancer Plan launched a pan-European initiative to UNderstand CANcer, UNCAN.eu, with the ultimate goal of “improving the lives of more than 3 million people, living longer and better, by 2030”. In order to define a strategic roadmap for UNCAN.eu, the European Commission has supported the creation of a Coordination and Support Action (CSA), 4.UNCAN.eu, that will identify research programs of priority in translational cancer research.

The RUSTICA project obtained funding under Horizon 2020, more in particular under the topic ‘Closing nutrient cycles’. RUSTICA focuses on demonstration and implementation of circular bio-based nutrient valorisation chains, focusing on waste from the fruit and vegetable agro-food system. The project kicked off in 2021 and will run until 2024. It will use a strong multi-actor approach to co-create both socio-economic and technological knowledge in four case study regions in Europe and one in Colombia. The Flanders-based company DRANCO is one of the project partners and acts as technical project manager for the entire project. DRANCO participates in the project to develop its own technologies, to network and to help make the transition to a more circular based economy.
