Creation of a dedicated Working Group for EXPeRT/PARTNER website
To stimulate communication, the PARTNER project has been integrated in the existing EXPeRT website, to ensure continuity with the European activities already carried out in this area.
The website www.raretumors-children.eu has been online since mid-February 2018 and a dedicated working group has now been set up to revamp the Expert website (European Cooperative Study Group for Pediatric Rare Tumors), including the PARTNER Project web pages.
The objective is to update the design and structure of the EXPeRT/PARTNER website thereby improving the presentation of the content so that web visitors can navigate easily to the desired pages and reach relevant/useful/up-to-date information.
The SIOPE team is liaising between the IT service provider and the EXPeRT/PARTNER Website Working Group to revamp the ‘look and feel’ of the existing website.
The current website has been developed in WordPress and is integrated in the current SIOPE website infrastructure. SIOPE has submitted a proposal to revamp the ‘look & feel’ of the homepage and all amendments and changes are planned to be completed soon.
