The Group 36 carries out studies in two major research areas:
Highlights
• Epidemiology, etiology, prevention and control of HPV-related diseases research
studies: Epidemiological studies on worldwide viral and strains distribution including

participation and coordination of international studies on vaccination and the evaluation

of the screening activities in Catalonia and monitoring the implementation of HPV
vaccines in Catalonia (phase III and IV studies). Additionally, the group is leading

studies on economic evaluation and modelling of cervical cancer prevention measures
in Catalonia, Spain and other worldwide geographical regions. Likewise, the group leads

the Information Centre on HPV and Cancer (http://www.hpvcentre.net/) on disease
burden and carries out training and dissemination activities through the coordination

and publication of monographs on HPV as well as an online educational program on
oncology (http://www.e-oncologia.org/).

• Lymphoma epidemiology and etiology research studies: The group is involved in several 13

multicenter studies: a) Within MCC_Spain coordinating the work associated to chronic T
OR
lymphocityc leukaemia (CLL) and participates actively in the infections, family history, P
occupational, and reproductive factors working groups associated to prostate, colon, RE

stomach and breast cancer; b) The EpiLymph study (non Hodgkin lymphoma, Hodgkin A
lymphoma and multiple myeloma) and its international enlargement (InterLymph). NU

Interlymph is now producing a monograph on a comprenhensive evaluation of risk A
factors and different lymphoma subtypes, including more than 24,000 controls and P /

on gene and environment interaction in GWAS studies.
