The 6th Canadian #GeriOnc Conference is this Friday (October 2nd). The theme is Leveraging Evolving Technology to Enhance Care of Older Adults with Cancer and is (aptly) being held virtually!
It's endorsed by #SIOG and there's still time to register!

Great talk by @SaurNicole about the role of health care providers in shared decision making - and how sacred that role is. Older adults are highly sensitive to how HCPs frame risks and benefits. Ageism and biases are thus important to recognize and address #siog2025 #gerionc
Great talk by my Canadian 🇨🇦colleague @UBC @kristenhaase about the systemic presence of ageism and how it affects shared decision making. Ageism is common in the healthcare system - but can occur in patients themselves! (I’m too old for treatment). #siog2025

So proud of @OttawaHospital Dr. Terry Ng and team in running a large multi centre study about whether the frequency of bone modifying agents can be decreased to q26wk in pt with met ca to the bones #ESMO25 - the answer: there is no difference in patient symptoms/fan and SREs
Amazing accomplishment - well deserved and couldn’t happen to a nicer person! She’s definitely had a positive impact on the careers of many oncologists - women and men! #ESMO25
