@cancer_K2A What a workmate! I mean how much ‘work’ can you get done with a colleague like this??

Feeling a bit down working from home with a broken ankle, but very grateful for my #WFH buddy Hercules who’s been giving me lots of snuggles

A standing ovation for #CHALLENGE trial at #ASCO25 - first in world to definitively show exercise reduces recurrence and improves survival: “For every 16 people, exercise prevents 1 person from recurrent/new cancer” “For every 14 people, exercise prevents 1 person from dying”

@drcarolynee @PC4TG Congratulations Carolyn! What a great appointment!

I am thrilled to announce that I am stepping into the role of @PC4TG Director from 1 July 2025!

@DrNicolasHart @Lisa_Beatty @COSAoncology Agree, great to see met survivorship on the agenda. And Dr Andrea Smith’s talk by far the most humbling & impactful

A real pleasure presenting on the topic of cancer survivorship for people affected by advanced or metastatic cancer. A wonderful panel of speakers including Dr Andrea Smith, @CancerEthicsDoc, @Lisa_Beatty, and Vicki Durston - #Surv25 @COSAoncology.

📰IN THE MEDIA⬇️| A new best practice guide developed by @PathologyRCPA and @TOGAANZ offers valuable recommendations for lung cancer care. However, concerns remain about the potential impact of stigma on participation in the #NationalLungCancerScreeningProgram. 🔬A media content analysis led by #DaffodilCentre Postdoctoral Research Fellow Dr Shiho Rose and her team revealed that stigmatising language - such as blame-focused terms and moralising narratives - continues to be prevalent in media coverage. 🔍The media plays a critical role in challenging the stigma surrounding lung cancer and encouraging people to engage in the screening program. 🌐Read the full article via @MedicalForum_🔗 mforum.com.au/new-best-pract… 📍@CCNewSouthWales | @syd_health #⃣ #LungCancer | #LungCancerTesting | #PublicHealth | #LungCancerCare
