MyPath European Parliament launch event
Join us at the MyPath project launch event at the European Parliament as we unveil the MyPath project, a five-year EU-funded initiative poised to reshape cancer care. MyPath is set to revolutionise patient-centred care pathways through the innovative MyPath digital platform, fostering shared decision-making between patients and healthcare providers.
With the launch event, we aim to improve our understanding of the role of patient-centred care within the scope of the EU Beating Cancer Plan. Besides presenting the MyPath project and its expected outcomes and impact beyond the project period, the event will also highlight the patient’s perspective on how patient-centred care can improve the disease trajectory of cancer patients. The event will be hosted by MEP Nicolae Ştefănuţă from the Greens/European Free Alliance Group, a member of the Special Committee on Beating Cancer.
The event will be held in a hybrid format and can be attended online. Registration for physical attendance is now closed, but you can still register for online attendance using this form.
