Cancer is one of the major health problems that the human being is
faced today and its importance is highlighted with increase in age.
At present the developed and developing countries are facing this
problem.
One way to tackle this problem is exchanging ideas among
researchers, doctors, nurses and related therapeutic and research
groups of cancer.
An effective approach for improving patient support in the Middle
East, is scientific data exchange and also benefiting from
European-American experiences in this area.
With respect to the above issue, the Middle East Oncology Congress
(COMO) is held biannually, hosted by the Lebanese Cancer Society
with the aim of providing the grounds for the researchers in this
area to exchange their experiences and to come with a close contact
with each other.
