Day 1 of #AMC2024 wrapped up with a lively debate: 'Patient advocacy & consumer representation are just a tick box exercise'. Very entertaining, with academy-award worthy role play! The negative team won, confirming consumer input is NOT simply a tick-the-box exercise.

During #AMC2024 opening @ProfGLongMIA & @ProfRScolyerMIA reflected on how the melanoma landscape has changed & the roadmap to reach zero deaths from melanoma, including consistent sun smart messaging, national targeted skin cancer screening, advancing treatment & supportive care.

Inspiring #AMC2024 discussions: 'Overview of peri-operative systemic therapies'- neodjuvant therapy, histopathology & surgery considerations, personalised vaccines, clinical stage II & III melanoma @amenzies9 @Robbotommo @davidgyorki @inespiresilva #VictoriaAtkinson #RobertRawson
