New project funded by Hanarth Foundation!

Cancer-related fatigue affects many people with cancer, yet we still cannot explain why some patients develop severe fatigue or why treatments help some but not others. Our freshly funded project FAIR-CARE takes a fresh approach by studying how symptoms connect and interact, using advanced AI and Bayesian network methods.

This project brings together an inspiring interdisciplinary team across Amsterdam UMC, Cancer Center Amsterdam, the NKCV and University of Amsterdam, combining oncology, psychology, neuroscience, data science and AI, namely: Hanneke van Laarhoven, Hans Knoop, Maarten Marsman, Tessa Blanken and both Linda and Mona.

A heartfelt thank you to the Hanarth Foundation for supporting this work. We look forward to improving understanding and care for people facing this challenging symptom!
