@LiangRhea @RCSEd @Watsoninverness Good to see you today 🤗

The @RCSEd and College of Surgeons Hong Kong teams have made it to #RACS26 despite the travel disruptions of the war! Delighted to catch up with RCSEd president Clare McNaught, RCSEd vice president Angus Watson (@Watsoninverness), and CSHK president Peggy Chu. 🤗

Warm congratulations to Professor Richard Scolyer AO, who was bestowed with an honorary doctorate by the University of Sydney at a graduation ceremony yesterday. Richard received this highest honour in recognition of his transformational work on the diagnosis and pathological characterisation of melanoma through pioneering pathology, translational cancer research and his global medical and research leadership. The ceremony was presided over by Vice-Chancellor and President, Professor Mark Scott AO, with the reading of the citation given by Senior Deputy Vice-Chancellor and Provost Professor Annamarie Jagose OAM. Professor Jane Bleasel was the presenting dean as Head of School and Dean of the Sydney Medical School. “It is our great privilege to bestow this honour in recognition of Richard’s lifelong commitment to discovery and the advancement of melanoma science, and his unwavering dedication to helping others through his research work,” said Professor Scott. Professor Jagose said: “Richard has been at the forefront of transforming the diagnosis and pathological understanding of melanoma, through pioneering advances in pathology practice and research.” Richard addressed all graduates and offered his sincere congratulations. "What I want to say is this: graduation is not an end point. It is the beginning of a lifetime of learning and curiosity,” “What you do matters. The questions you ask and the courage you show can change lives. Be brave, be bold, and challenge the status quo. With you, the future is in good hands.” @ProfRAScolyer @Sydney_Uni @syd_health

Perth is putting on a show with this good weather for #racsasc2026. Looking forward to watching the next gen watch the stage at Convocation this evening.

The outgoing president looks fabulous. I, on the other hand, have a fabulous double chin. #RACS25 #RACSASC25

Medicine has a long and proud history of self experimentation (H pylori, laryngeal masks, cardiac catheterisation) and this guy just wrote himself into it. Truly a new and good version of 'toxic masculinity' 🤯🐍💉 npr.org/sections/goats…
