Scientific Advisory Board


The Scientific Advisory Board was established to provide the LuCE Executive Board and Team with expert advice on different aspects of lung cancer. It is composed of health professionals with a special interest in lung cancer and key opinion leaders from across the European lung cancer community. Members may come from the various medical specialties of oncology, radiation oncology, psychosocial oncology, physiotherapy, nursing, the social sciences and other appropriate medical or research specialities.

Our Scientific Advisory Board advises and provides insights and recommendations in support of our advocacy and educational activities.
