The event marked a major step towards strengthening national collaboration in cancer research and aligning Belgian efforts with Europe’s Beating Cancer Plan.
Discussions highlighted BeCRA’s role as a unifying platform to coordinate national research priorities, facilitate access to European funding, and support data-driven innovation through initiatives such as the Belgian Cancer Data Hub.
Sciensano, together with Belgian academic partners, is organising the Belgian BioElectroMagnetics Group (BBEMG) seminar dedicated to electromagnetic fields, agriculture and health.
Since 1995, the BBEMG has brought together experts from Sciensano, HOGENT, ULiège, UGent and ULB as part of a multidisciplinary programme to understand the effects of electromagnetic fields (50 Hz) on plants, animals and human health.
Since the European Health Data Space (EHDS) Regulation entered into force in March, attention has turned to how it will be put into practice. The Regulation specifies that certain health data must be made available not only for healthcare, but also for reuse for other purposes such as scientific research, innovation, public health and policy-making. This is known as secondary use of health data.
This workshop, organized as part of the Belgian PARERE activities at Sciensano, aims to explore the challenges and opportunities for adopting New Approach Methodologies (NAMs) across various regulatory domains.
Sciensano is delighted to host this year’s BelTox-BEMS Annual Scientific Meeting on microplastics, organized by the Belgian Society for toxicology and ecotoxicology (BelTox) together with the Belgian Environmental Mutagen Society (BEMS) on the 4th of December at Sciensano premises in Brussels (Auditorium Storck, Rue Ernest Blerot, 1070 Anderlecht).
Sciensano invites you to take part in the seminar “Well-being of healthcare and welfare professionals” — a day of exchange and dialogue dedicated to exploring one key question:
What policy choices and conditions are needed to sustainably improve the well-being of healthcare and welfare professionals?
How can following people’s health journeys over decades transform the policies that shape our healthcare systems?
To ensure our services stay aligned with stakeholder needs, we invite you to complete a short, anonymous survey focused on two priority areas:
We are pleased to invite you to the final event of the HELICON project, which will take place on Monday, 15 December 2025, from 09:30 to 14:00, in Room Storck at the Eurostation building (Rue Ernest Blérot 1, Brussels).
