TESTIMONIALS

" If someone had explained "Biology" this way in school, I guess I would now be a biologist.”

"...really well done: informative but broken down to a digestible level."

" Excellent course for those who want to understand the basis of oncology, the mechanism of cancer and want to dive into biology."

" Combines the theory and examples so clearly that it puts everything into perspective, even if you do not have a medical/science background."

" ...informative and educational, brilliantly delivered and fun! I never felt lost."

" Even as a non-biologist, I managed to understand oncology concepts that first looked very complex"

"...an excellent course and really helped to understand the nature of oncology."

"...excellent course that really helped to understand the nature of oncology."

A platform to see the big picture
and то create Shareable Knowledge

Progress in oncology, over the last 100 years, has been phenomenal and yet utterly disappointing. Can better understanding of cancer biology shared by all help?

We have made amazing progress in treating cancer, but cancer incidence is rising dramatically.
No one understands why.
Cancer research has reached astronomical proportions, with hundreds of articles published every day.
No one can make sense of it all.
Maybe we should learn to understand cancer better, in a different way
through education, unbiased communication and research testimonials

in research and education

“The best way to learn something is to have to teach it”

In 2014, I was asked by a business manager from one of the top 10 pharma companies to build and deliver a 2 day course in oncology, aimed at all non-oncologists, to get everyone in the same page.

In 2024, the start-up I co-created embarked on a super exciting research project on drug delivery in immuno-oncology.

How can cancer research and cancer education benefit each other most?
Answering this question is what Learning to understand cancer is all about.

Courses offered

This 3-day intensive course offers a simplified, yet a scientifically rigorous and comprehensive introduction to cancer. It explains the molecular biology of healthy, dysplastic and neoplastic cells, what tumors are made off and explores in detail all recognized cancer hallmarks.

This course acts as a “driving school” that makes it possible for all non-oncologists – scientists and non-scientists – to navigate the complex landscape of oncology and engage in meaningful conversations with both experts and lay people.

This two-day course is made for all professionals– scientists and non-scientists- working in oncology that need to gain a thorough understanding of the transformations that are taking place in cancer treatments thanks to immunotherapy.

By attending this course you will learn how to discuss key issues in immuno-oncology across all functions.

This 2-day intensive course provides a comprehensive overview of the key biological and technological advancements driving cancer drug discovery and development. By attending, you will find answers to all the essential questions that multidisciplinary teams are faced with at all preclinical stages of drug development .
