It's a huge honour & privilege to be appointed as one of the Trustees for Cancer Black Care @CancerBlackCare. CBC is a charity supporting people diagnosed with any cancer and support them throughout their cancer journey. I'm looking forward to our work together.

We enjoy supporting this event #MarchForMen each year. Attendees often want to know of any studies/trials that could be applicable for them. Thanks to all the organisers @ProstateUK for yet another great event 👏

Assessment of a Polygenic Risk Score in Screening for Prostate Cancer (BARCODE1) out on NEJM nejm.org/doi/full/10.10… Study evaluated a targeted #ProstateCancer screening approach using polygenic risk scores derived from 130 known genetic variants, identifying men aged 55–69 in the top 10% of genetic risk; among those screened with MRI and biopsy, 40% were diagnosed with prostate cancer, over half of which were intermediate or higher risk—most of which would have been missed by standard PSA-based screening—demonstrating that polygenic risk–stratified screening may more effectively detect clinically significant disease. @JanaMchugh @LizBancroft2 @MarkNBrook @Eva_M83 @HogbenMatthew @JanetteKinsella @CahillDeclan @zx8754 @ProfSyedHussain @DrImranRafi @Prof_Nick_James @Norapashayan @OncoAlert 🚨 @Silke_Gillessen @AOmlin @nataliagandur @bavilima

One of our roundtables on Patient Day will be on the topic of the increased risk Black men face regarding prostate cancer, and more generally on the need for representation in healthcare. @Eva_M83 of the Institute of Cancer Research shares her insights 👉 uroweb.org/news/breaking-…

@EauPatient Really looking forward to it 😊

It is a huge honour to be part of this year's EAU Congress, #EAU25 and to support the Patient Day. I am really looking forward to it. Come and join us on 21st March 2025 in Madrid #PatientDay

@Uroweb It is a huge honour to be part of EAU25. Looking forward to it 😊

@EauPatient @MKaravitakis @MRvanBalken @Evangel59982067 Looking forward to EAU25 and the Patient Day. @EauPatient Congrats on such a busy year 👏

The last Patient Office meeting of the year took place today, where we discussed and finalised plans for Patient’s Day at our upcoming annual EAU Congress, on Friday 21st of March 2025. Looking forward to seeing you there in 2025! 🙌

Thanks to your group @CDLIW1 for inviting me back. I'm glad that my presentation on 'What is cancer?' was informative to you and your members. It was a pleasure to be there. You are doing an amazing job, improving the lives of so many people 👏

Happy to be part of this amazing team as @CancerBlackCare continues to strive and reach more people. #CommunitySupport

It's crucial to support those dedicated to saving lives and making a positive impact. Without research 🔬, we won't uncover the possibilities that lie ahead.

We're hiring! Cancer Black Care is looking for a Cancer Information Officer to join us. Please share this opportunity within your networks! #JobOpportunity #Job #Employment #Cancer cancerblackcare.org.uk/wp-content/upl…

Thank you to @WCS_school for inviting me to speak to your STEM students and share my education and career pathway. I hope that I managed to inspire the new generation of scientists/researchers, etc. We had a very engaging Q&A session afterwards as well. A very exciting morning.

In Westminster today to launch @ProstateUK programme for government about how we can make diagnosis of prostate cancer faster, fairer and better. Amazing to be joined by many allies - both clinical & community. Fantastic engagement from MPs keen to drive change. 🤞they deliver…

@rylance_amy @ProstateUK We hope that government will do something to ensure that every man can get a PSA test as this can lead to early diagnosis. It was great to be there today to support this programme

So happy being at Houses of Parliament today in support of @ProstateUK as they launched their programme for government: Faster. Fairer. Better. Prostate Cancer checks. NHS guidelines need updating to ensure that every man can get a PSA test. This can lead to early diagnosis.

@CDLIW1 @royalmarsdenNHS @ProstateUK @ICR_London @UroNoel @HarrietVane50 @S_L_Gray @rylance_amy Thank you for sharing your story. I'm sure you empowered many others.

I had the privilege of speaking at the TRANSLATE conference, whereby researchers are exploring genetic strategies to combat prostate cancer deaths. A joint event organised by the Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust, Prostate Cancer UK and The Institute of Cancer Research (ICR);

Looking forward to TRANSLATE: Meet the researchers - a joint event with @royalmarsdenNHS @ProstateUK @ICR_London a chance for members of the public to meet the researchers to know about our work and how to make research more accessible and relevant.
