The 4th European Seminars in Virology (EuSeV), which was focused on oncogenic and oncolytic viruses, was held in Bertinoro (Bologna), Italy, from June 10 to 12, 2016. This article summarizes the plenary lectures and aims to illustrate the main topics discussed at 4th EuSeV, which brought together knowledge and expertise in the field of oncogenic and oncolytic viruses from all over the world. The meeting was divided in two parts, “Mechanisms of Viral Oncogenesis” and “Viral Oncolysis and Immunotherapy,” which were both focused on dissecting the complex and multi‐factorial interplay between cancer and human viruses and on exploring new anti‐cancer strategies.
