Hospital Shadowing
The Naples program offers shadowing at the Giovanni Pascale Foundation, Southern Italy’s leading cancer center since 1933.
As a regional hub for oncology, the institute combines advanced care with cutting-edge clinical and experimental research. It’s also part of Italy’s national network for rare diseases.
Pascale was the first oncology center in Italy to organize care by disease-specific departments, bringing together oncologists, surgeons, radiologists, and other specialists to improve diagnosis and treatment through true interdisciplinary collaboration.
