What does it take to decide if a cancer is caused by HPV?
Wednesday, 21st September 2022
16:00-17:30 CEST (Geneva) / 10:00-11:30 EDT (New York)
Topic:
This live and free webinar will be about determining causal relations for cancers associated with HPV.
In this session, the speakers will:
• explain the scientific criteria used in medicine and public health to attribute causality;
• identify the neoplastic diseases for which HPV has been convincingly proven to be a cause, as well as other cancers for which scientific proof is still insufficient for the role of HPV;
• explain challenges to the scientific demonstration that HPV is a cause of a given cancer and novel mechanisms of HPV carcinogenesis
