Several members of the hub are active partners in ECHoS, including Oslo Cancer Cluster, the Norwegian Research Council, the Norwegian Cancer Society, Oslo University Hospital and SINTEF.
ECHoS has defined the following ambitious objectives:
- To promote the creation of National Cancer Mission Hubs in MS/AC
- To establish a network of support to advance the Cancer Mission across Europe
- To create synergies for the implementation of the Cancer Mission with other European initiatives towards a “Cancer in all” approach
- To create the foundations for a European network of NCMHs by developing a business continuity and operations model framework
Oslo Cancer Cluster is leading a task in work package 3 on stakeholder engagement and cooperation and will contribute to several other work packages.
