Get ready, Dénia. The fight against cancer is coming to the forefront in a major way this November 23, as the Balearia Maritime Station prepares for the V Cancer Days: Research and Society , organised by Amunt against Cancer.
From 8.45 AM until 2 PM, this free public event will bring cancer research directly to the people, offering a platform for open dialogue between top-tier researchers, healthcare pros, cancer patients, and budding scientists. It’s a day to bring research out of the labs and into the lives of everyone it touches.

Cutting-edge precision medicine: Experts dissect the latest in personalised treatments, tackling the big Q’s on drug resistance, lung and breast cancer advances, and the role of immune responses. Expect a real eye-opener here.
CAR-T therapies: the next big thing
