Today is #WorldCancerDay #UnitedByUnique calls for rethinking how cancer care responds to ageing. At SIOG, advancing care for older adults means combining evidence with respect for individual values Through #SPARC, SIOG brings voices together to shape more people-centred care

🌐 #WorldCancerDay is approaching. This year’s theme, #UnitedByUnique, reminds us that cancer is never just a diagnosis. For older adults, care must reflect health, function, context, and personal priorities. Seeing the person comes first. loom.ly/QxzHl7w

🎥 You can now catch up on the latest #SIOGwebinar organised by the NAHS Interest Group. Patient education for older adults with cancer and their caregivers Results of a scoping review mapping existing interventions, outcomes, and remaining gaps. ▶️ loom.ly/QX6EvEA

SIOG is launching #IGOR, a new resource to map data sources that combine #cancer and geriatric variables — supporting collaboration and stronger research in #GeriatricOncology. If you manage or know of a relevant database, we invite you to contribute: 🔗 forms.gle/wc7QUzDKyXpMcn…

What happens after the #SIOGResearchMasterclass? A project presented by Asst. Prof. Dana Giza was refined through faculty feedback and later submitted for funding. Mentorship continued beyond the course. Apply by 8 March: loom.ly/QFO3xsk #GeriOnc

Congratulations to Enrique Soto Pérez de Celis, SIOG Board Member, on receiving the BJ Kennedy Award for Geriatric Oncology, one of the ASCO 2026 Special Awards A well-deserved recognition for his leadership in #GeriOnc and global cancer care loom.ly/HSRM9r4 @EnriqueSoto8

A project presented at the #SIOGResearchMasterclass progressed to regulatory submission, with patient inclusion planned this year. This is the kind of real-world impact the Masterclass aims for. 📍 Florida · Apr 8–10, 2026 Apply by March 8 loom.ly/QFO3xsk #GeriOnc

It’s happening today! Patient education for older adults with #cancer and their caregivers Results of a scoping review mapping what exists, what works, and where gaps remain. 🕓 Live at 16:00 CET 🔗 Join here: loom.ly/vj1r6t4 #SIOGwebinar #NAHS #GeriOnc #SIOG2026

Patient education shapes how older adults & caregivers understand a diagnosis, weigh options, & manage care. But is it designed for real-world complexity? Tomorrow’s #SIOGwebinar explores what exists, what works, and what’s missing loom.ly/vj1r6t4 #NAHS #GeriOnc #SIOG2026

How often do we assume patient education is really working for older adults with #cancer? 📅 21 Jan | 16:00 CET Patient education for older adults with cancer and their caregivers: Results of a scoping review loom.ly/vj1r6t4 @siognah #SIOGwebinar #NAHS #GeriOnc #SIOG2026

Much of everyday practice is shaped by evidence that doesn’t fully reflect older adults. The #SIOGResearchMasterclass helps clinicians & researchers question that evidence & strengthen how studies in #GeriatricOncology are designed. Apr 8–10 Apply by Mar 8 loom.ly/QFO3xsk

📽️ SIOG continues to advance #GeriatricOncology through education, research, and clinical practice that responds to the realities of ageing. We carry this responsibility with the same commitment that inspired SIOG’s creation 25 years ago. Season’s greetings from SIOG. 💙

Designing studies in #GeriatricOncology often requires approaches beyond standard methods. The #SIOGResearchMasterclass offers hands-on learning, small-group work, and expert guidance in a focused setting. Florida · Apr 8–10, 2026 Apply by Mar 8: loom.ly/QFO3xsk #GeriOnc
