After our fantastic partnership with the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) for EONS11 in Munich in 2018, EONS again joined with our ESMO colleagues in September 2019, in Barcelona, Spain, for a hugely successful conference

The theme of the EONS Cancer Nursing Track – from Saturday 28 to Monday 30 September – was: Cancer nursing, translating science into clinical practice and better safety for all. (You can download the full programme from the Further Information section of this page.)

EONS President Lena Sharp and President Elect Andreas Charalambous, who chaired the Scientific Committee, commented: “We were really excited to be holding our EONS Conference alongside the ESMO Congress again this year. Once more, our conference offered rich opportunities for joint sessions, networking and a top quality packed programme, plus access to all the ESMO sessions.”

*You will be able to read full reports of many of the EONS sessions in the forthcoming EONS Magazine.
