AACR/JCA 8th Joint Conference: Cancer Genomics, Epigenomics, and the Development of Novel Therapeutics
Feb 5, 2010 - Feb 9, 2010,

More than 20 years ago, the American Association for Cancer Research and the Japanese Cancer Association held their first of seven joint conferences. These meetings have been aimed at bringing outstanding American and Japanese researchers together with two goals. The first is to provide a forum for discussion of the latest advances in the broad field of cancer research, both translational/clinical and basic. The second and equally important goal is to provide a mechanism for the interpersonal interactions which foster international collaborations. These conferences have been extremely successful in both areas and are tangible examples of the close relationship between the AACR and the JCA.

The 8th Joint Conference continues to extend this tradition. The 13 conference sessions will feature outstanding speakers covering topics ranging from basic science to therapeutics, including prevention, epigenetics, and other important areas. Thus, the conference will take a broad view of contemporary cancer research that is intended to be of interest to basic and clinical investigators. The organization and timing of the platform and poster sessions have been designed to maximize interactions. The conference organizers believe that this meeting will catalyze many new collaborations, just as its predecessors have done.

5a Conferenza Nazionale GIMBE® - Dall'Evidence-based Practice alla Clinical Governance
Feb 5, 2010 - Feb 5, 2010,
Royal Carlton Hotel Royal Hotel Carlton Bologna, Emilia Romagna Italy 40121

GIMBE® organizza a Bologna il 5 febbraio 2010 la 5a Conferenza Nazionale: Dall'Evidence-based Practice alla Clinical Governance.
Due letture introduttive proveranno a rispondere a interrogativi di estrema attualità:
- Il Nuovo Sistema di Formazione Continua in Medicina rappresenta una concreta opportunità per la diffusione dell'EBP e l'attuazione della clinical governance nelle organizzazioni sanitarie? Attraverso quali strumenti è possibile raggiungere questi obiettivi?
- Il Governo Clinico costituisce un'ancora di salvezza per l'universalismo del sistema sanitario pubblico? In particolare, quali sono i rischi di una sua applicazione "federalistica" conseguente all'eterogeneità dei diversi Piani Sanitari Regionali?

La Sessione I è dedicata all'Evidence-based Practice: un percorso integrato di EBP nel corso di laurea in fisioterapia, qualità e affidabilità delle fonti d'informazione online da utilizzare "a leto del malato", come produrre raccomandazioni cliniche in assenza di evidenze.

Le sessioni successive metteranno in vetrina qualificati progetti di Clinical Governance realizzati nelle Aziende sanitarie:
- Sessione II: produzione di percorsi assistenziali e loro misurazione tramite audit clinici
- Sessione III: progetti di risk management
- Sessione IV: sperimentazioni di strategie e interventi organizzativi

Appuntamento a Bologna!
