UNCAN.eu: Toward a European Federated Cancer Research Data Hub
A workshop hosted in Heidelberg gathered European cancer experts to identify ongoing initiatives, among them EOSC4Cancer, that may contribute to building a platform that connects cancer research accross Member States and discuss the governance and long-
term evolution of a European Federated Cancer Data Hub. The outcomes were highlighted in a paper by Boutros et al., 2024.
Roadmap for a European Cancer Data Management and Precision Medicine Infrastructure
Gold-standard cancer data management is pivotal to enable precision medicine for European citizens. Achieving this goal relies on adopting standardized data formats, ensuring robust data privacy, and more. All these efforts, of which EOSC4Cancer is part of, are highlighted on this paper by Nikolski et al., 2024.

Social Media Series - Burden of Cancer
The Burden of Cancer is considerable – in the European Union, cancer is the second leading cause of death among citizens, right after cardiovascular diseases.
EOSC4Cancer is part of the initiatives organized by the EU to increase prevention, early diagnosis, and accurate therapies for cancer patients. Another one of our goals is to constantly spread information about cancer and the EU Cancer Mission, in light of which we currently have a series on our LinkedIn and Twitter (X).
