The Danish Research Center for Skin Cancer is now on Instagram: Follow for weekly updates on our work and research

Around 35.000 Danes are diagnosed with skin cancer every year, which makes skin cancer the most widespread form of cancer in Denmark. A primary task for the research center is to raise skin cancer awareness through our work and research.

Target group and purpose

With the launch of the new Instagram profile, we hope to reach a wider target audience - especially younger people, who may not find their way to our website. Furthermore Instagram is a social and visual media that inspire dialogue and engagement, which we appreciate and encourage.

The purpose of the new communication channel is to share stories, latest research and important knowledge about risk factors, prevention and skin cancer treatment to patients, relatives and professionals. Instagram also provides a well suited platform to share more personal stories from our patients and employees.
