European mobility within health care and social work training institutes in Brittany is the preserve of a few institutions, principally involving further-education training. Students in vocational-education training (levels V and IV) still have very limited access to European mobility, which is usually just a group visit for a few days. Scarcely more than 1% of Breton students following health car ...

A European Platform for Translational Cancer Research (EUROCANPLATFORM)

Start date: Jan 1, 2011, End date: Dec 31, 2016,

...ject analysed the barriers underlying the increasing fragmentation of cancer research and stressed the need to improve collaboration between basic/preclinical and comprehensive cancer centres (CCCs), institutions in which care and prevention is integrated with research and education. Furthermore, it proposed the creation of a platform of interlinked cancer centres with shared infrastructures and c ...

"While early detection of breast cancer by screening appears effective, many women derive little or no benefit from screening, due to the way it is currently organized: as a one-size-fits all approach irrespective of personalised risk factors. It is known, however, that some women are at a much higher risk of getting the disease than others, and that mammography is unsuitable for cancer detection ...

Individualisation of cancer therapy based on standardized biomarker assays is one of the most demanding challenges in cancer medicine. In the RESPONSIFY consortium, we will integrate information on response prediction from different breast cancer types and methodologies into biomarker tests for targeted therapies in the clinical routine setting. Those tests will be developed for commercialisation ...

Breast Cancer Somatic Genetics Study (BASIS)

Start date: Jul 1, 2010, End date: Dec 31, 2014,

"All cancers arise due to somatically acquired mutations in their genomes which alter the function of key cancer genes. Understanding these critical mutational events underlying cancer development is paramount for advancing prevention, early detection, monitoring and treatment of the disease. Breast cancer is the most common class of cancer diagnosed in women worldwide with more than one million c ...

The project will enhance the training received by radiologists by developing an innovative e-training method that is able to provide them with a range of case studies and an advanced training curriculum. The project will focus on brain MRI and mammographic imaging but can easily be extended to accommodate other medical sub-specialities. The creation of the project's internet platform will particul ...
