Election Special 4: The Conservatives.

@drdavidpalma @DrAndrewLoblaw What a trial! Really can’t wait for results. Although I think our physics department will have a heart attack if positive.

What a wonderful interview. This is Matej Mohoric after winning a stage on @LeTour His interview is pure gold and needs to be seen. Self-doubt, respect for others, deep determination, hard work, fear…and loads of emotion. We are guilty of forgetting elite sports people are people. This interview is a great reminder x

It is that time of the year again. The @SABRconsortium annual conference promises to be another exciting meeting, this time in the cracking city of Belfast! Please submit your abstracts by 7th Sept at www5.shocklogic.com/sl/0f73fa7 #UKSABR23 #radonc #medphys #rtt

@DrDThomson @CRUKresearch @RTTQA_UK Very well done! A huge success. It was even popular in Wales @VelindreCC with patients willing to travel to participate in the study

Proud as the UKs first proton trial completes recruitment & ahead of schedule too! Many thanks to the patients, and all involved. It’s been a huge team effort! Very grateful to @CRUKresearch for funding the trial and @RTTQA_UK for their superb work.

Fantastic Welsh contribution from @SWWCancerCentre @VelindreCC trainees fellows & consultants to inspirational #ESTRO2023 in vibrant Vienna. Weather brightening up now too for @mereride talk this pm! @emma_higgins1 @Tomrackley @fionawilliams16 @tomcrosby12 @RTTQA_UK @tomroques

Recruited quite a lot of patients to ACT4 and I have definitely seen a difference in clinic in terms of toxicity. Great to see results to back this up. #ESTRO2023

Come on how can you resist a trip to Belfast #uksabr23

Great start to day 2 #UKSABR22 Laura Dawson combing SABR with IO

@drjamesgood @RTTQA_UK @AliStunt @ActionRTherapy That is great news I will need to get onto our Welsh commissioners!

It’s been a long road but what a great result: #SABR for pancreatic cancer will be made available to NHS patients. bit.ly/3qpugYW — efforts now focus on training, trials, boosting access to MR-guidance, and refining protocols @RTTQA_UK @AliStunt @ActionRTherapy

@docdai I feel your pain Dai. I tend to check emails even on leave as I often find that less stressful than a mountain of them when I return.

48 hours after returning from annual leave and still almost 200 emails to get through (minus all the OOH replies), an overflowing vetting folder, two days without any proper lunch break and no letters signed off since returning. Surely the NHS has a better solution than this?
