Digestive Cancers Europe, shared on LinkedIn:
“Today, DiCE CEO Zorana Maravic joined the Pancreatic Cancer Europe meeting, ‘Pancreatic Cancer Primary Prevention and Screening Interventions’ on day one in Barcelona!
In her presentation,
‘From Awareness to Action: Building Public-Health Policy for Pancreatic Cancer Prevention and Early Detection’
Zorana highlighted the urgent need for stronger public health action.
With most patients diagnosed at an advanced stage, pancreatic cancer remains a major public health challenge. While population-wide screening is not yet available, we can act now by:
- raising awareness of modifiable risk factors
- improving the identification and surveillance of people at high risk
- strengthening European collaboration and research to develop effective early-detection strategies.
A meaningful start to UEGWeek2026, with more discussions and opportunities for collaboration ahead.
Stay tuned for updates!”
