DATE: September 16, 2026
VENUE: Prague City Hall, Prague
We warmly invite you to the 4th annual ONKO PACIENT 2026 conference, dedicated to cancer patients, their loved ones, and everyone interested in the topic of cancer prevention and early detection. Join us to gain practical information that can help you better understand the current options for cancer prevention, screening, early detection, and modern diagnostics. The conference will explore how new approaches to prevention and early testing can help detect cancer at an earlier stage, when treatment is often more successful.
ONKO PACIENT 2026 offers an opportunity to gain practical knowledge, ask questions directly to leading experts, and learn what new approaches and developments may mean for patients and their families.
