Dear colleagues,

The website you are visiting is the homepage of the Czech Head and Neck Cancer Cooperative Group.

This association was established to formally connect experts involved in the diagnosis and treatment of head and neck cancers, to provide them with a platform that would facilitate more intensive interdisciplinary exchange of views, and to represent them in dealings with the public and international organizations.

The mission and activities of the Head and Neck Cancer Cooperative Group can be summarized as follows:

• The group promotes the interdisciplinary exchange of knowledge and ideas, primarily by organizing interdisciplinary conferences.

• The group forms a representative, multidisciplinary body that serves as a valid partner to international organizations such as the European Head and Neck Society and the International Federation of Head and Neck Oncology Societies, and can participate in international EU programs such as Cooperation in Science and Technology.

• The group initiates interdisciplinary clinical research projects and supports the inclusion of domestic institutions in international research projects.

• The group participates in postgraduate education in various fields and promotes interdisciplinarity within this education.

• The group engages in public education efforts regarding the prevention and early diagnosis of head and neck cancers, targeting both the professional and general public.
