I came across your webinar blog “Challenges-of cancer-care-in-Cameroon” and
have been quite impressed how the situations are.That motivated me to contact you as
regards to possible closer cooperation.
I am not sure how to foresee the developments in Africa if it comes to RT but known
from past experience that we can be quite optimistic.
Please let me know, if you plan any activities such as local RT events or trainings so that
we can maybe start cooperation on that.
mit freundlichen Grüßen.
