The event was held at the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences of the Bellvitge Campus of the University of Barcelona (UB). <\/p>\n\n<p>After the words of the director of IDIBELL, <strong>Gabriel Capell\u00e1<\/strong> , who opened the event, the Strategic Plan for the year 2025 was presented by <strong>Laia Alemany<\/strong> , who coordinates the Program together with <strong>Ra\u00fal Zamora<\/strong> . As objectives for the future, she highlighted the need to increase <strong>collaboration<\/strong> between the different programs that make up EPIBELL and its national and international <strong>visibility<\/strong> . <\/p>\n\n<p>The meeting also served to present new projects, strategic alliances and five experiences of <strong>collaborative projects<\/strong> between different EPIBELL programs. To close, attendees were able to enjoy a conference on lessons from participatory research in mental health applicable to oncology by three external guests from the <strong>Sant Joan de D\u00e9u Health Park.<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n<p>The EPIBELL Program has a multidisciplinary group of professionals made up of epidemiologists, pathologists, geneticists, biologists, nutritionists, computer scientists, statistical technicians, economists and specialists in research and administration support. Together they develop research projects and studies related to the causes of cancer and its prevention, early diagnosis and the evaluation and improvement of quality in oncological care. <\/p>\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.icoprevencio.cat\/uct\/video-els-joves-desmunten-cinc-mites-sobre-el-tabac\/\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-id=\"13113\" src=\"https:\/\/icoprevencio.cat\/uct\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2025\/06\/GtUt5MXW8AAF5v5-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13113\" srcset=\"https:\/\/icoprevencio.cat\/uct\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2025\/06\/GtUt5MXW8AAF5v5-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/icoprevencio.cat\/uct\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2025\/06\/GtUt5MXW8AAF5v5-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/icoprevencio.cat\/uct\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2025\/06\/GtUt5MXW8AAF5v5-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/icoprevencio.cat\/uct\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2025\/06\/GtUt5MXW8AAF5v5-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/icoprevencio.cat\/uct\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2025\/06\/GtUt5MXW8AAF5v5-500x281.jpg 500w, https:\/\/icoprevencio.cat\/uct\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2025\/06\/GtUt5MXW8AAF5v5-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/icoprevencio.cat\/uct\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2025\/06\/GtUt5MXW8AAF5v5-1280x720.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/icoprevencio.cat\/uct\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2025\/06\/GtUt5MXW8AAF5v5-1920x1080.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/icoprevencio.cat\/uct\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2025\/06\/GtUt5MXW8AAF5v5.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-id=\"13116\" src=\"https:\/\/icoprevencio.cat\/uct\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2025\/06\/IMG_5605-1-2-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13116\" srcset=\"https:\/\/icoprevencio.cat\/uct\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2025\/06\/IMG_5605-1-2-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/icoprevencio.cat\/uct\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2025\/06\/IMG_5605-1-2-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/icoprevencio.cat\/uct\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2025\/06\/IMG_5605-1-2-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/icoprevencio.cat\/uct\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2025\/06\/IMG_5605-1-2-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/icoprevencio.cat\/uct\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2025\/06\/IMG_5605-1-2-2048x1152.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/icoprevencio.cat\/uct\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2025\/06\/IMG_5605-1-2-500x281.jpg 500w, https:\/\/icoprevencio.cat\/uct\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2025\/06\/IMG_5605-1-2-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/icoprevencio.cat\/uct\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2025\/06\/IMG_5605-1-2-1280x720.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/icoprevencio.cat\/uct\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2025\/06\/IMG_5605-1-2-1920x1080.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Tobacco Control Unit of the Catalan Institute of Oncology (ICO) participated this Friday, June 13, in the second edition of the Research Conference of the Epidemiology, Public Health, Cancer Prevention and Palliative Care Program (EPIBELL) of the Bellvitge Biomedical Research Institute (IDIBELL).
