Based on specific lines and research areas that continue to position VHIO as an international benchmark, we share our expertise, learn from eminent guest speakers and discuss and debate our latest findings through the organization of VHIO ad-hoc courses and workshops.

Committed to exchanging information about the most recent discoveries in cancer science and medicine, VHIO organized and hosted a total of 25 courses, workshops, observerships and perceptorships in 2020. Naturally, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the majority of these were held online. In the years prior to COVID-19, the norm was to hold about 50 VHIO-organized courses and workshops each year.
