3 Questions about the learning platform
The learning platform aims to raise awareness about emerging issues in cancer research for cancer prevention.
It also intends to invite researchers and professionals to learn about these topics from different perspectives.
This learning platform is open to all and available for free. It is designed for researchers, students, health professionals, policy-makers, and anyone interested in cancer prevention.
