Hungary and Russia may launch joint research and development projects in oncology, the National Institute of Oncology (OOI) said on Monday, after a Russian delegation headed by Health Minister Mikhail Murashko visited Budapest.
OOI said in a statement that the talks between the delegation and the Hungarian side, which included Peter Takacs, the state secretary for health care, and OOI Director General Csaba Polgar, focused on exploring new areas of cooperation in research, development, and technological innovation.
At the meeting, the Russian health minister briefed the hosts about his country’s experiences in the use of AI in diagnosing cancer and about the development of a new software.
Takacs noted the possibility of expanding cooperation concerning Hungary’s similar research projects. He called launching joint projects in innovative medicine research and medical therapy development “an important possible component”.
Murashko said that Russian proton therapy-centres were ready to receive, if need be, Hungarian patients, primarily children.

Doing research into curing cancer. How terrible!
Hungary first!
@michaelsteiner – we are actually pretty advanced in the field of. Can imagine countries wanting to collaborate. Would not necessarily choose Russia as a collaboration partner in the current conditions, though.
Russians could be doing more to improve “preventable mortality”, if that is their concern:

Good, better lukewarm relations with Russia than phony friendship with Brussels and 26 EU member countries, starting with Germany, France, Italy, Austria, Czeck Republic, Poland, etc..
Russia at least does not attack the section of Ukraine where Hungarians ended up because of bad US policies. However, all EU countries are guilty of murder of Hungarian boys because the supply of armaments need soldiers, and the horrible Ukrainians grab 16-year-old Hungarian boys and send them to the front to ensure that they come back in a body bag.
