European Reference Network on Paediatric Cancer (ERN PaedCan)

The European Reference Network on Paediatric Cancer (ERN PaedCan) is dedicated to reducing inequalities in childhood cancer survival by providing high-quality, accessible, and cost-effective cross-border healthcare for children and adolescents with cancer regardless where they live.

ERN PaedCan has full EU coverage (27 Member States + Norway), with 79 full members and 11 affiliated partners.

The coordinator is Prof. Ruth Ladenstein, St. Anna Kinderspital & St. Anna Kinderkrebsforschung, Austria.

ERN PaedCan works in close collaboration with The European Society for Paediatric Oncology (SIOP Europe) and Childhood Cancer International Europe, to ensure activities of the network are aligned with the community strategic objectives and that parents and patients have access to the network infrastructure.
