At #SIOG2025, our friends from @OncoDaily interviewed SIOG Board Member and #SIOGAdvancedCourse Director Etienne Brain about this flagship programme in #GeriatricOncology.
Clinical cases, small groups, real exchange.

❗ Two weeks left to apply!

Older adults make up most patients with #cancer, yet evidence does not fully reflect them. In #GeriatricOncology, better research starts with better study design.

Join the #SIOGResearchMasterclass.

In #GeriatricOncology, bridging evidence and real-world care demands clinical judgement and multidisciplinary exchange.

The 12th #SIOGAdvancedCourse returns to Treviso.

📍 17–19 June 2026

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

[International Society of Geriatric Oncology (SIOG) @SIOGorg]

🌐 #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.

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:

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.

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.

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

How often do we assume patient education is really working for older adults with #cancer?

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.

📽️ 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. 💙

[International Society of Geriatric Oncology (SIOG) @SIOGorg]

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.
