The University of Latvia, as a partner in the European Joint Action project "Joint Action on Networks of Expertise on Cancer" (JANE-2), invites interested parties to take part in the first event of the new webinar series "Talking to JANE-2 – Conversations on Unmet Needs in Cancer Care."

The aim of the webinar series is to introduce the work of the JANE-2 network of experts and to highlight the most pressing challenges in cancer care across Europe.
