Pediatric cancer research and awareness initiatives in FR

Overview

Various solidarity and scientific initiatives are being organized across France to support pediatric cancer research and treatment.

In Marseille, the nonprofit Enfants Cancers Santé is scheduled to host the second public scientific meeting on pediatric oncology at Fort Ganteaume on 18–19 September 2026. The event aims to promote advances in oncopediatric research and includes a public symposium on topics such as childhood leukaemias, neuroblastoma, and new immunotherapies. Additionally, the AP-HM is organizing a charity concert on 3 September 2026 to fund an MRI-Linac for La Timone, which would be the first French university hospital to have such equipment dedicated to pediatrics.

In Jeumont, the ‘Septembre en Or’ event is planned for 20 September 2026, featuring sports activities and fundraising efforts to raise awareness for the cause.
