Exchanges

 

National Exchanges

Exchanges and National Agreements - The different research groups that have developed activities with the PPGOCM of UFPA, carry out very well established and consolidated national and international institutional exchanges, among which the following stand out:

 

I. National Cancer Institute (INCA): several joint projects, involving the exchange of teachers and students, based on national and international projects funded by INCA have been carried out in collaboration with the PPGOCM of UFPA. It is the Institution closest to the program, contributing intensively to the consolidation of the master's degree in oncology in its various lines, both in disciplines, translational and clinical research, which we have just begun. Clinical research will be especially strengthened by integrating the officially approved National Clinical Cancer Research Network.

We emphasize the participation of our group in the INCT of the Cancer, coordinated by the INCA.

In 2017, an academic mission was carried out at PPGOCM and PPGBM at UFPA, the following INCA researcher:

1) Hector Nicolas Seuanez Abreu, PhD.
