Science Café: Cancer Prevention

Science Café: Cancer Prevention

The regular event, Science Café, is holding an event on Cancer Prevention on International Women's day. The event will be held on 8 March from 18:30 at Prague House. 

The debate will hear from two speakers. Firstly, from Kateřina Šédová, a doctor, who after her own cancer experience, founded a non-profit organization Loono with the mission to motivate people to think about their health. Secondly, from Nina Formánek Jaganjacová, who focuses on healthcare from the perspective of social policy and international development. 

Thanks to significant improvements in medical practices, societal conditions, and our understanding of health in general, Europeans have been living longer and healthier lives over the past century. However, cancer continues to wreck lives, affect families and put a heavy burden on our health and societal systems.
