Approaching Global Oncology: The win-win model

from Medicine Made Simple · host Medicine Made Simple

A global movement aimed at increasing the affordability and quality of cancer care, especially in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). The Win-Win Movement, co-founded by Wilfred Ngwa and Ahmed Elzawawy, emphasizes international collaboration among diverse stakeholders, including academia, industry (like Varian and Elekta), and professional societies (such as SLACOM and ESSO), to find scientific and sustainable solutions to cancer disparities. Key strategies explored include innovative education through the Global Oncology University (GO-U), leveraging Information and Communications Technology (ICT) and Artificial Intelligence (AI), addressing the threat of counterfeit medicines, and adopting cost-saving measures like drug repositioning and dose optimization, as well as considering alternative financing models like leasing equipment. The book itself is designed as a "living book," constantly evolving with feedback from readers and updated content presented at events like the annual Global Health Catalyst Summits.You can listen and download our episodes for free on more than 10 different platforms:https://linktr.ee/medicine_made_simpleProduced by:https://www.podcaistudio.com/
