Who are we?
ECP was established in 1981 to promote collaboration between scientists working in various European countries and to use the large population of Europe with their wide range of lifestyles as a laboratory for the study of cancer causation and prevention. The organization will act worldwide as an additional source of independent and authoritative information on cancer causation and prevention for government, health professionals and the media.
The General Assembly, with legal voting rights, is selected by the Board from the members of the Society. The General Assembly meets at least every year. The whole organization is ultimately controlled by the General Assembly, presided over by the Board. The Board is elected every three years.
The General Assembly meets at least every year. The 2007 General Assembly was held in Brussels. After a long day of planning major decisions were made for the Society conduct, budget and action plans.
