Dear GRELL members, Dear presenters, Dear attendees,

The GRELL 2021 organizing team would like to warmly thank you for your participation, support and exchanges made during the 45th annual GRELL meeting. Hosted for the first time by Luxembourg, it was also the first 100% virtual GRELL meeting. Proudly, this meeting welcomed around 200 live attendees per day, joining the conference from 20 nations.

In particular, we would like to thank all presenters who accepted our invitations despite very busy time schedules and the virtual format of the event imposing new technical constraints. Thank you for your professionalism and your involvement. Without you, this meeting would not have been possible.

We would also like to thank our contributors. Without their financial support, we would not have been able to organise this event. We would like to highlight the financial support of the Luxembourg National Research Fund (FNR) through the RESCOM: Scientific Events funding program, the Health Directorate of the Luxembourg Ministry of Health, the Fondation Cancer, the Fondatioun Kriibskrank Kanner, the Societé Luxembourgeoise d’Oncologie and the National Cancer Institute.

Finally, we would like to thank the entire team of the National Cancer Registry of Luxembourg (RNC) and of the Luxembourg Institute of Health (LIH) for the excellent organisation of this virtual event (LIH press release). It was a genuine challenge and now we can conclude that the "Mission is possible", thanks to you all.

We hope to meet you in person in Spain next year and remain,

With best wishes from Luxembourg !

Lancement officiel: Mercredi 15 Mai 2013 à 14h30

En Juillet 2011, Monsieur le Ministre de la Santé Mars Di Bartolomeo décidait de mettre en place le premier Registre National du Cancer (RNC) au Luxembourg. C’est désormais officiel, le registre a été lancé le mercredi 15 Mai 2013 à 14h30 en présence de la presse. Pour la première fois, le pays a mis en place un outil unique lui permettant de suivre à la fois l’incidence des cancers, leur prise en charge mais aussi la survie des patients. Le Registre National du Cancer  suit la trace d’autres pays Européens et s’annonce d’ores et déjà comme une véritable avancée au Luxembourg et une plus-value incontestable pour les patients. Le Luxembourg Institute of Health (L.I.H., anciennement Centre de Recherche Public de la Santé (CRP-Santé)) pilote le projet en tant qu’Institution Responsable en liaison avec les hôpitaux et les autres acteurs clés du domaine du Cancer au Luxembourg*. en savoir plus
