Organiser of 2nd INTERNATIONAL COLLOQUIUM ON PALAEO-ONCOLOGY:THE ANTIQUITY OF CANCER
THE EUROPEAN SOCIETY FOR THE HISTORY OF ONCOLOGY (ESHO) was founded in 2014 by Oncologists and Medical Historians with professional and academic links in Britain, Greece, Cyprus and Switzerland. The objectives of ESHO are the study of the antiquity of cancer and the evolution of the science of oncology, the origins of which can be traced to Hippocrates.
The first International Colloquium on Palaeo-oncology, held in London, on 16 November 2018, generated considerable interest and attracted speakers from China, India, Canada, as well as, contributions from Portugal, Britain and Greece. The educational content of the 2018-meeting had the endorsement of the European School of Oncology (ESO).
The 2019 meeting will be held in the splendid neo-classical building of the ACADEMY OF ATHENS and we anticipate that it will generate even greater interest with more participants and topics.
