Improving citizens’ participation in cancer screening programmes and 
extending them to more types of cancer will help saving lives, EU Chief 
Scientific Advisors recommend
Today, in support of the Commission’s work under Europe’s Beating Cancer 
Plan to improve early detection through screening, the European 
Commission’s Group of Chief Scientific Advisors (GCSA) released a 
Scientific Opinion on cancer screening in Europe. In the Opinion, the 
Advisors provide recommendations on how to improve the existing 
screening programmes on breast, colorectal and cervical cancer and 
advise to extend them to lung and prostate cancer. They also stress the 
importance of increasing people’s participation to such programmes by 
making them more accessible.

Mariya Gabriel, Commissioner for Innovation, Research, Culture, 
Education and Youth, said:

    /"Saving lives by improving cancer prevention and early detection is
    one of the key aims of the EU Mission on Cancer. Research and
    innovation advance our understanding of all phases of cancer and
    pave the way to improve diagnosis, treatment and care interventions.
    This Scientific Opinion provides key insights and recommendations
    and it thus contributes significantly to this goal.”/

Towards a new era of tackling Alzheimer’s disease

While the incidence of Alzheimer’s disease continues to grow at an 
alarming rate, advances in treatment and prevention have stalled. The 
EU-industry funded ADAPTED project worked to better understand how the 
presence of a specific gene significantly increases the risk of disease. 
This research could open the door to new treatment for patients.
