Message from the Directors

 

Dear Colleagues,

It’s a great pleasure to welcome you in Tunis to the first Post-Graduate Course co-organised by Mediterranean School of Oncology(MSO) and the Mediterranean Task Force for Cancer Control (MTCC) on“Breast Cancer: From Epidemiology to Treatment” that will take place in Tunis in November 14th, 2008 at the Hotel El Mechtel.
This Course, under the auspices of Mr Mondher Zenaidi, Minister of Health, is co-organised by MSO and MTCC in collaboration with the Tunisian National college of Oncology, the Association Tunisienne d’Assistance aux Malades du Cancer du Sein (ATAMCS), the Association de Radiothérapie Oncologie de la Méditerranée (AROME) and the Institut Salah Azaiz of Tunis.
The selected topics are intended to give a comprehensive approach to an important health problem in our Mediterranean countries due to persistent delayed diagnosis and the poor impact on prognosis. This important event will take place in a country interested in its long history by many historical moves between the two sides of our mother water. It gathers experts from southern and northern parts of the Mediterranean Basin, united and concerned by the problem of breast cancer.
It’s oriented to young specialists in oncology, but also first line physicians from North Africa that need to be involved in an important multidisciplinary effort to improve the prognosis of breast cancer by earlier diagnoses and adequate therapeutic management protocols according to international guidelines and internationally recognised good clinical practices.

We address our thanks to the diligence and efforts done by our Italian MTCC-MSO friends and colleagues Massimo and Stefano and to the local scientific and organizing committee. Our thanks to the you and all for the interest and the acceptance to participate to this event.

 

Hamouda Boussen MD
Stefano Iacobelli MD
