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.
