Alicia Castelo: Geriatric Oncology Research and Global Collaboration Take Center Stage at SIOG2026

Alicia Castelo, Medical Oncologist at Hospital 12 de Octubre, shared on X:

“What an honour to co-chair SIOG2026 with Martine, Myriam and Nicolás! A Global Call to Action wouldn’t have been possible without you! And after two amazing years with YSIOG, I’m ready for two more!

So proud to meet so many students from our UAM Expert Diploma in Geriatric Oncology! And so special to share SIOG2026 with my wonderful colleagues from Hospital 12 de Octubre, Carlos and Erika. Thank you, always!

To my amazing Spanish friends: always a joy to see you and a privilege to work together. Here’s to many more projects! BRÍO And to my wonderful international friends: so lovely to reconnect! I only wish we’d had more time together!

A little self-promotion! Loved sharing our work on treatment decision-making and the health economics of geriatric assessment in older patients with lung cancer. Science, friendship and inspiration.

That’s SIOG2026! See you next year!”
