Researchers from the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) and the Joint Research Centre (JRC) of the European Commission (EC) have launched a call for experts to assist in the development of the quality assurance (QA) scheme for cervical cancer care services as part of the EC Initiative on Cervical Cancer (EC-CvC) and Europe’s Beating Cancer Plan.
IARC and the JRC are interested in expressions of interest from clinical, scientific, and technical experts in the following areas: onco-gynaecology, surgery, and treatment of cervical precancer; radiation oncology; medical oncology; pathology; colposcopy; rehabilitation; sexual health; follow-up and survivorship; palliative care; complementary and integrative oncology; psychological aspects of diagnosis (psycho-oncology); and social aspects of diagnosis (social services, returning to work).
Patients and/or caregivers are also invited to apply. Applications must be submitted by 15 September 2025.
The estimated workload as a working group member or a subgroup expert is 2 or 3 meetings per month, each lasting from 1 hour to a maximum of 4 hours. Also, monthly preparatory and follow-up activities will require on average half a day to 1 day of time distributed across the month.
