Abstract | This manuscript outlines the progress of education in the field of medical oncology in Egypt over the past 50 years. The manuscript illustrates the origin of the Egyptian medical oncology program since the creation of the only specialized cancer center in the country, the National Cancer Institute of Cairo University (NCI-Cairo) in 1969, from Cairo University Medical School. The manuscript also outlines the NCI-Cairo's educational program for developing a cadre of academic medical oncologists for NCI-Cairo, other Egyptian medical institutions, and countries in the Middle East and Africa. We also emphasize the capacity building that resulted over the past 50 years from academic and professional standpoints, the changing curriculum in medical oncology, and the differences between the medical oncology and clinical oncology education programs in the country. Medical oncology research resulted from international collaborations and highlighted needs for cancer prevention and control. Finally, we propose possible future directions for medical oncology education and research in the country and a roadmap for low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) that are developing their medical oncology programs. |
