In the EU, cancer accounts for more deaths in people under 65 than any other disease. It hosts less than 10% of the world&rsquo;s population, but yet has 23% of all cancer cases. On average, only 1 in 2 cancer patients survive and one in two of us will face cancer in our lifetimes. A successful fight against cancer rely upon identifying, aligning, planning and coordinating actions of these initiatives at the Scientific and Technical level. A task that needs to be done by a neutral, independent, yet competent entity &ndash; the JRC. It is in this context that the JRC is establishing the EC Knowledge Centre on Cancer (KCC).\n<\/p>\n<h2>Agenda<\/h2>\n<p>\nThis virtual event is hosted on WebEx.
