Method of discussion

The organisation created for EUROCHIP-1 is maintained and expanded. EUROCHIP-2 has/will be:

(a) an International Steering Committee with a co-ordinating role,

(b) a Working Group to perform analyses and prepare reports;

(c) a National Specialist Group in each country concerned with national themes and including professionals involved in cancer (medical oncologists, radiotherapists, surgeons, epidemiologists, economists, sociologists, health planners etc.);

(d) Five Domain Specialist Groups operating at the European level on different aspects of cancer (prevention, registration and epidemiology, screening, treatment, and social and economic determinants);

(e) a Methodology Group to examine problems relating to the collection, standardisation, and validation of data; and

(f) a Panel of Experts to elaborate the International strategy of EUROCHIP-2 and take operational decisions. The Panel of Experts will include delegates from each National Specialist Group, the Domain Specialist Groups, the Methodology Group, and all major networks and institutions directly or indirectly involved in cancer (e.g. IARC, OECD, EUROCARE, EUROPREVAL, EBCN).
