The challenges and hardship the pandemic placed upon us in 2020 continued to affect us throughout 2021. The Executive Board is enormously proud of the way all of us at Cancer Center Amsterdam have come together to meet the demands of the ‘new normal’.

Considering the unprecedented pressure on our healthcare system, our professionals, students, patients, and volunteers have succeeded in finding ways to move forward with innovation and flexibility, while safeguarding each other’s health. We have proven resilient, creative, and tough in the face of hardship.

We continued to provide the best care for our patients with cancer, to perform world class research, and to educate the next generation of care givers and researchers, despite the continuing pandemic. These are extraordinary accomplishments!

We thank everyone at Cancer Center Amsterdam for their relentless efforts and commitment to our mission to improve the lives of patients with cancer.

This holiday season, we are again faced by restrictions. Nevertheless, we hope you will enjoy the company of your loved-ones nicely tucked away in your favorite festive outfit.

Best wishes to all for a safe and merry Christmas!
