in Japanese

National Cancer Center of Japan (President: Dr. Tomomitsu Hotta, Location: Chuo-ku, Tokyo, abbreviated as NCC) has signed a memorandum of understanding with the Institut National du Cancer in France (abbreviated as INCa, Location: Boulogne Billancourt, France), or French National Cancer Institute.

Created by the Public Health Law of 9 August 2004, the INCa is a National Health and Science Agency wholly dedicated to cancers. The INCa is responsible for coordinating the cancer control activities in France and operates under the joint authority of the Ministers of Health and of Research.

The INCa and NCC intend by this MOU to promote high-quality research and strengthen the evidence base that underpins cancer prevention and control, with a particular emphasis on innovative technologies and their assessment through clinical research, and cancer registry.

It is the third MOU signed by the NCC with institutions overseas following the ones with two American institutions. We look forward to future research cooperation and interactions beyond borders.
