On the agenda for this Day:

  • What will thoracic oncology look like in 2030?

Over the past two decades, thoracic oncology has become more complex, both in terms of the management of metastatic diseases and earlier stages. Numerous therapeutic targets have changed the therapeutic landscape in multiple histological subclasses, while immune checkpoint inhibitors have revolutionized treatment plans and patient prognosis. Numerous technological developments will be implemented in the coming years. The aim of this meeting is to take stock of these new developments and attempt to assess their impact on our activities in the coming years. Speakers will come from all over Belgium and abroad.

  • Afternoon round table - AI and scientific publication: how can we combine technological advances with the preservation of intellectual activity?

Artificial intelligence is now part of our everyday lives. In medicine, therapeutic decision support programs (such as screening for nodules on chest scans) are commonly used. Scientific publication remains a major and potentially complex intellectual endeavor. What is the place, and is there a place, for AI in the process of publishing scientific research?
