MEMBER HIGHLIGHT:
EUROPACOLON SLOVENIJA


EuropaColon Slovenija, founded in 2007, is part of an umbrella organization called Digestive Cancers Europe. The organization began with a focus on colorectal cancer patients, but today all digestive cancers are included, with a focus on pancreatic cancer. In Slovenia, pancreatic cancer has the lowest five-year relative survival rate at a mere 4 percent, and it has remained the same for the last 40 years. The organization's main goal is to raise awareness of the disease in the public as well as among healthcare professionals.
