​MPNE2020?

In view of the current Corona endemic, we have decided to postpone MPNE2020 till the beginning of October! 

What's new?

We shall see- this is a save-the-date! 

ACCESS, RESEARCH, PERSPECTIVE

​

A special format

Our network is continuously growing, connecting a growing number of Melanoma patients, family members and advocates. We are becoming more diverse in terms of geography, focus- with a growing group of rare Melanoma advocates- and interests- from the newly diagnosed to the long-term survivors. Like piloted in 2018, there will therefore be sessions for first-comers', intermediate and advanced interests to make sure everyone is able to follow. We do our utter-best to get new-comers up to speed while still having something challenging for those we lovingly call our 'dinos'!

Faculty

We always invite the most suitable speakers for a certain topic, so you won't find political invitations. You will also note a growing number of MPNEhubs- those special people who connect national Melanoma networks across Europe- among our faculty members. You will be surprised at the expertise in our network!

who should apply?

We are looking for Melanoma patients, carers and advocates who want to learn as much as possible about Melanoma. The level of the conference is high- we believe that knowledge is a Melanoma patient's best chance to survive- and we expect participation throughout the event. If that's sounds scary, no worries, we don't bite. There will be lots of tools, resources, help and support available- we only expect you to make use of it!

Not quite you but still interested to attend? Please contact us. 

How do we select?

Conference participation is upon application only.

First and foremost, we select based on motivation: so what do you hope to learn this time?

Then, we got one annual conference but we all know Melanoma does not only grow once a year. So we are looking for are people who are not only in it for themselves but who want to share their knowledge to protect the people around them. So tell us what you have done in the past, what you are currently doing and what you are planning to do in the future to keep Melanoma patients safe.
