A new prestigious award for a multidisciplinary team conducting impactful research related to breast cancer.

The European Breast Cancer Conference prides itself on offering state-of-the-art education, but this year we also want to provide a forum for original research to be presented.
EBCC-14 aims to attract high quality original multidisciplinary research in breast cancer. The main topic of EBCC-14 will be research and innovation in the multidisciplinary management of breast cancer. For this reason, we are launching the prestigious EBCC MTEA.

Multidisciplinary teams that submit an original research abstract to EBCC-14 in the fields of medical oncology, surgical oncology, radiotherapy, medical imaging, survivorship, translational and basic research, and health care research related to breast cancer not previously published or presented in another conference. The work needs to be multidisciplinary.

The multidisciplinary team award recipients will receive 5 000 EUR, free travel arrangements, accommodation, registration to the conference and an invitation to the faculty dinner for 3 people.

Applications are now closed and successful applicants will be contacted by mid January

The EBCC scientific committee that has reviewed all the abstracts submitted to EBCC will provide to the EBCC MTEA selection committee a list of the top submitted abstracts that involve multidisciplinary work.

The EBCC-14 Organising Committee invites nominations for the EBCC Arts and Humanities Award, a prize that recognises an outstanding contribution to the arts/humanities and which has a direct relationship to the fight against breast cancer.

The EBCC Arts and Humanities Award will be awarded to the individual who has “made a difference” through an artistic or humanistic activity such as: artwork, dance, film, literature, music, photography or poetry and whose contribution and personal achievements reflect the efforts and vision that unite EBCC.

It is important that such efforts do not go unrecognised, thus we invite you to look within your respective countries and nominate an individual whom you believe deserves this significant recognition on the occasion of the 14^th European Breast Cancer Conference in Milan.

The EBCC Arts and Humanities Award is worth 1’500 EUR and includes an all expenses paid trip to attend EBCC-14.
