| Title |
PHS: Cancer Epidemiology and Control |
| Description |
09.-11.12.2026
This 3-day course introduces students to important concepts in cancer epidemiology such as cancer registration, statistics, etiology, risk factors, and prognosis. The course will focus on the cancer burden in Switzerland but also discuss cancer epidemiology internationally. Furthermore, the public health approaches to cancer control will be covered (primary prevention, screening, equity in access to established treatments). Different cancer cites will serve as “case studies” for this course.
Registration and deregistration regulation: Registration for PHS courses is open until approximately two weeks before the course begins. Participants may deregister without incurring an administrative fee up to one month before the course starts. After the deregistration period, the organisers will decide whether the course will take place. Registrations after the deregistration deadline are binding, and any deregistration after this deadline will incur an administrative fee of CHF 100. More information is available on the website: https://www.medizin.unibe.ch/studies/study_programs/phs_course_program/index_eng.html#pane1296400 |
