In addition, since 2016, he serves as Scientific Director of ESO. Fedro Peccatori has also contributed to define a community of reference around the issues of cancer during pregnancy and fertility after cancer and has contributed to the guidelines of the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) and AIOM on these topics.
