The European Cancer Organisation welcomes the European Commissions proposal for a Biotech Act. The Act shows strong potential in supporting an environment in Europe in which research and innovation in fields such as new cancer treatments can flourish. The Act also identifies a number of barriers to the adoption of improved forms of treatment, with sensible proposals for how these can be alleviated.
