Nordic Urothelial Cancer Oncology Group

Nordic Urothelial Cancer Oncology Group (NUCOG) is a collaborative network between medical oncologists in Finland, Norway, Sweden and Denmark.

About us

The primary aim is to ensure scientific knowledge dissemination throughout the Scandinavian network and to plan and conduct investigator

initiatied clinical trials.

Ultimately this collaboration hopes to bring forward advances in the treatment of urothelial cancer for the better of patients with urothelial cancer and their families.

With this site we hope to enable easy communication between scientists, inspire upcoming researchers and inform patient and relatives about urothelial cancer in a scientific arena.
