CancerTreatmentToxicitiesGroup
@ToxicitiesGroup
A group of scientists and clinicians dedicated to integrating the pathogenesis, prediction and prevention of cancer-related side effects.







It is an exciting but sad day for the @ToxicitiesGroup, with longstanding #PhD student, @kate_secombe wrapping up with her exit seminar! It has been a pleasure seeing you all the way from honours! You have become an incredible scientist and I can’t wait to see what comes next!



Sharing the lessons I have learnt along the way to become an effective science communicator! Thank you @FBNS_EMCR for a fantastic meeting so far! #scicomm #SuperstarsofSTEM #ECR #phdchat #emcr




A little while ago @BLiSS_emcr Adelaide encouraged us to share our research though the power of video. If you have ever wondered how on earth #cancer, #chemotherapy and the #microbiome are linked, take a look! #pooisNOTtaboo #guthealth #bacteria

@JoanneBowen_UoA you are, and will always be, a brilliant mentor and supervisor - thank you for everything you have done for me - it is so great to see your relentless efforts recognised by @UniofAdelaide in the #FHMS Exec Dean's Awards! #womeninleadership #WomenSupportingWomen

@hannahrwardill from @ToxicitiesGroup raising the bar! There are 2kg of microbes in our body... thats HUGE! About 2bottles of wine worth! Now that’s an analogy a pub audience can get behind! 😉#RTBADL #microbiome #pooisnottaboo #chemotherapywithasideofpoo





Clinical evidence shows #fasting before #chemo improves response - why... we dont know! Here, I show fasting beneficially modulates the #microbiome and slows mucosal proliferation providing a possible explanation tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10… #supponc #IntermittentFasting

2/2: @ToxicitiesGroup PhD Student, @Elise_Bruning discusses how understanding cell-specific expression of TLR4 could be used to better exploit this receptor and improve management of #gastrointestinal diseases. Her article is available (Early View) here: dx.doi.org/10.1002/jcp.29…


Dr Finkel and Australia’s @WomenInSTEMAu Ambassador @lisaharveysmith emphasise the challenges for Australian women in #STEM in this article in @ConversationEDU bit.ly/32XM5CE
