Geriatrician

Cancer is a disease that disproportionately affects the elderly, and current guidelines recommend a comprehensive geriatric assessment for older patients with cancer.

This year’s EFORT Travelling Fellowship took place in Tartu and Tallinn, Estonia from 12 to 18 May 2019. Twelve participants from Europe were given the opportunity to interact, visit local hospitals and take part in lectures on everything from highly specialized trauma to ortho-geriatrics.
