Herbert Loong: Join us at ACLC24 in Hong Kong
Herbert Loong shared a post by Lung Cancer Policy Network on LinkedIn, adding the following:
“We look forward to fruitful discussions and exchanges highlighting issues surrounding implementation of lung cancer screening in the Asia Pacific region where there are key differences in epidemiology, healthcare access and infrastructure between and within countries and regions in our locality. Come join us in the run up to our In Person event to be held at ACLC24 in Hong Kong!”
Quoting Lung Cancer Policy Network’s post:
“Join us and Asia Pacific Coalition against Lung Cancer on 25 September 2024, 16.00–17.00 HKT (18.00–19.00 AEST, 10.00–11.00 CEST) for an exciting webinar on the current landscape of screening programmes for lung cancer in the Asia-Pacific region.
The region faces a unique set of challenges in the epidemiology of lung cancer, risk factors for the disease and varied health systems, all operating within a range of economic and social contexts. These factors should be considered when preparing and implementing screening programmes for lung cancer.
The webinar will feature screening and health system leaders from across the region. These experts will outline the current stage of lung cancer screening in Australia, Singapore, South Korea and India, sharing some of the challenges experienced and lessons learnt so far.
