On behalf of the European Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology (ESTRO), the European Head and Neck Society (EHNS) and the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) we are pleased to announce the 2nd International Conference on Innovative Approaches in Heak and Neck Oncology (ICHNO).

Following the footsteps of the 1st International Conference on Innovative Approaches in Head and Neck Oncology, this second edition will continue the ambitious path towards multidiscipliarity and innovation.
With major emphasis on multidisciplinarity and innovation, this Conference will specifically cover the main following topics:

• Biological patient profiling and risk factors
• Emerging diagnostic and therapeutic tools
• Functional outcome of treatments
• Management of elderly patients
• Recurrent and metastatic disease
• Clinical controversies based on case discussions, such as sequential vs concomitant chemotherapy vs concomitant targeted agents, post-chemo-radiotherapy neck dissection.

The format of the Conference will combine “state of the art lectures”, lectures on innovative approaches and proffered papers. Ample time will be given to discussions to allow in-depth interactions among the various disciplines and the participants.
