Unicancer provides support to expert groups responsible for addressing questions on therapeutic strategies and research.
Governance & Organization
Unicancer is at the same time a hospital federation, a clinical trial sponsor and a health cooperation group (groupement de coopération sanitaire – GCS). Unicancer’s governance defines the network’s common strategy and orientations. The Directorate General and the Executive Committee implement this strategy.
The governance of Unicancer
The Unicancer Federation’s Board is the same as that of the Unicancer health cooperation group (groupement de coopération sanitaire – GCS). In the same way, the President and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the Federation occupy the same positions within the Unicancer GCS.
Presidency
The President of Unicancer chairs the Board. The Board proposes the common strategy for the centres, and it subsequently submits it to the General Assembly.
