FORTEe at SIOP Europe 2024
What an incredible week at #SIOPEurope2024! We had a fantastic time presenting FORTEe and loved the big interest in Paediatric Exercise Oncology. 🤸♀️🏃♂️🧗♀️⛹️♂️
Special thanks to our teams from Monza, Milano & Mainz for organizing everything and representing FORTEe.
It was also great to see two sessions on paediatric exercise oncology throughout the #SIOPEurope2024 program, sparking super interesting and valuable conversations at the FORTEe booth.
A great success all around! 🚀💪Thank you to everyone for coming by!

4th General Assembly Meeting
The FORTEe consortium met in Lecco, Italy, by the stunning Lake Como at the end of February 2024 to review recent progress in the clinical trial and research outcomes. Leaders of the different work packages shared and deliberated on the current status of their projects. It was a wonderful opportunity to reconnect with familiar faces and meet new members in person.
A Year in Review: FORTEe in 2023
As the year comes to an end, we seize the opportunity to look back at some great achievements FORTEe and its diligent team made during the past 12 months.
The FORTEe clinical trial is progressing well at all 9 established trial sites. On top, we could welcome in October UKESSEN as the 10th trial site and new clinical partner. Up to now, more than 300 participants have been enrolled in the FORTEe clinical trial, since it was initiated.
All work packages are making encouraging progress and in Spring of 2023 we had the chance to discuss the project the first time in person at our General Assembly Meeting in Madrid! All work package leaders reported their progress and we had the chance to take important decisions together.
In September, a successful #GoldSeptember social media campaign was launched with contributions from all FORTEe partners! Our dedicated team members captured moments of solidarity by taking pictures in gold to symbolize the strength and resilience of children battling cancer. We wholeheartedly shared these images across our social media platforms, amplifying the message of hope and the need for continued research and support.
We are looking forward to another exciting year with FORTEe! We warmly invite you to join us in the next phase of our journey.
