Next month, the UK NSC will once again open its annual call process when any individual or organisation can suggest a new screening programme.
During this year’s annual call, following the expansion of the committee’s remit, the UK NSC will welcome proposals for targeted and stratified screening as well as population screening.
In addition to suggesting a brand new screening topic for the committee to consider, you can also propose an early update to a UK NSC topic or a major modification to an existing screening programme.
The 2022 annual call will:
- open on Monday 5 September
- close on Monday 5 December
If you have a suitable topic in mind for the UK NSC to consider then you can start preparing now by referring to the UK NSC annual call: submitting a screening proposal guidance.
We have updated this guidance to align with the committee’s updated criteria and expanded remit.
