7th International Conference on UV and Skin Cancer Prevention

Lillehammer, Norway — 15–17 September 2027

The International Conference on UV and Skin Cancer Prevention brings together researchers, public-health professionals, clinicians, policymakers and practitioners working to reduce the global burden of skin cancer.

Since the inaugural conference in Copenhagen in 2011, the series has travelled to Berlin, Melbourne, Toronto, Mechelen (online) and Brisbane, advancing international collaboration and translating evidence into effective prevention.
